We're at the ferry terminal in Portsmouth waiting to board for our overnight crossing to St. Malo, France. Here in Portsmouth, we did indeed find a nice pub right across from the train station. We both had a lovely feed of fish and chips (which also seems to include peas here), and I had a couple of pints of Abbots Ale. Oh, is it ever good. I'd love to find someone in Chicago who sells pints like that. More from France!
