Today is our last full day and we had to leave the chalet at 7.45am to get the 8.12am train.At Spiez the over 12s plus me, Evie, David Mott and Kate got off to change trains and go to Boltigen, where we met our guides from Swiss Adventure. The under 12s plus Rowan, Roger, Alex, Mick and Dave Hunt went on down to Thun, again to meet some guides from Swiss Adventure.
The rafting was great fun, although the river was pretty low and we were grounding on rocks more than once. We were out 14km later at Darstetten and headed back, again via Spiez.The under 12s went from Thun to Bern and got trains home, although they were a couple of hours behind us.
We managed to tidy some parts of the chalet ready for tomorrow's departure - we'll be aiming for the 12.12 train.
We had dinner in the main Centre and you can see some of the thousands of scarves they have here (pic 1). We also took a picture outside for posterity (pic 2).

The kids were all running around trading scarves and badges - make sure you have a new scarf for our return in September!
They're heading for beds now - apologies there are no pics of the 
rafting etc., but there might well be some footage on the DVD. As a compensation, I thought you might all like to see where your offspring are sleeping!

Crumbs! Some tired-looking children there.
Hope you have a safe and hassle-free journey home tomorrow. We are looking forward to seeing Lewis very much and hearing all about the wonderful time he has had there with everyone.
Thanks to you all for making this opportunity available - I'm sure they will remember it always.
All the best,
Roger and Sage.
Have a great last day and trip back. A huge thank you to all those involved in organising and helping make this possible.
Ant and Michelle
