Kooji does Boston - Day Eight

Since we were too exhausted from all the events of the previous day we left all our packing to do until this morning. We had to somehow make room for all the brochures, books and DVDs we wanted to bring back with us and so we desperately attempted to jam them in with the rest of our luggage. After a few rounds with the suitcases we eventually won overall, despite the increase in weight. Then we casually strolled down for breakfast. Afterwards and once we spotted the time, we sprinted back to our rooms, tearfully said goodbye to it, dragged the suitcases out and booked our last shuttle to the train station. We had intended to take the Silver Line train to the Logan Airport but due to the suitcases we decided the only sensible option was to take the Logan Express coach back. Our return flights home had delays on them but we were too shattered to care and the flight from Newark to Manchester Airport set off at night so we were able to see the whole city lit up which was stunning.

Johnny’s brother Andrew kindly came to pick us up from the airport to take us home. Until he arrived we took turns napping because we were so jet lagged and once I was in the car I kept dozing off. He asked how the trip had been and all I could mumble was “incredible” as I drifted in and out of consciousness. Later on everyone was treated to a much more in depth reply accompanied by a five hour slide show marathon. Luckily for everyone else however, they have been directed to this online diary. Thanks for reading.
