Day 11 - Coming home

We were up at 8am and after breakfast, all the Scouts completed ther packing. The idea is to close down parts of the chalet piece by piece. The washrooms were closed off last night, next the bedrooms. Once they were packed we cleaned up all the dust and rubbish and moved bags down a floor. Next step was the dining room, and so it carried on through the building, taking the bags and Scouts up to a gazebo while we finished up. We had an inspection at noon, luckily including Tom from KISC as a German speaker. We had had a mirror break last night, but he was able to explain that the fitting was wrong. We got charged Sfr20 for 3 missing spoons and a cut in a mattress. Our coach was there for 12.30pm and we headed back to Basel - some traffic delays but we were there in plenty of time. We got our bags checked in and then went through security, although Max seemed to have metallic ankles which delayed us a little. We were then sat around the airport playing cards and perspiring gently - my, it was warm there. Our flight was delayed 35 minutes, then we boarded the plane and were delayed a little more. On the flight, we ate some spare rolls and snack bars, and I interviewed everyone about their favourite moments. Back in the UK, and we had a long queue for passport checks. Reclaimed our baggage and met everyone in arrivals. It is always a relief to know we have delivered everyone back safely.
