259th Glasgow's Swiss Adventure

We started our journey off at Glasgow airport, 7am (early bird catches the flight). From Glasgow we flew to London Heathrow with British airways, during that flight we learned that Rachael and Saffron can no longer fly cheap after this taste of luxury- they give you FREE food?!- there was simply no going back. Daisy shouted out her excitement about finally leaving the country, only to be disappointed to be told that London wasn't *actually* leaving the country.

As our flight was delayed, Saffron befriended 2 Middle Aged American women because what else you going to do with a spare 3 hours, right? Robyn decided that this was the prime time to snooze (we have pictures, don't worry) whilst the girls had their lunch.

From there we flew into Geneva. Arriving an hour later than planned we frantically ran to catch our train, we were not dressed appropriately for that brisk jog. After a slow recovery on the train, we decided to play some games. We discovered many things from these games, the leaders are devious, the girls catch on quick and trying to get Saff to problem solve is like banging your head against a brick wall.

After finally arriving in Kandersteg, after 2 expertly made train changes, we carried our cases through the town for about half an hour, to Kandersteg International Scout Centre *queue Robyn's sigh of relief* Finally checked in, everyone safe and sound, it was bed time.
