Well, this was it, a proper Swiss Cheese Fondue in a proper Swiss Chalet, thanks to the World Girl Guide Centre at Adelboden. The rules applied were to kiss the person on your right if you dropped your food off your fork into the cheese. The table below survived and no kisses were administered but by the sound of things some of the other tables were doing some kissing. I guess it is a kids thing but many were not too keen on the fondue as they said the cheese was too strong, they all made a good attempt though and never just turned their noses up at it.
Following the meal, Fritz, the Alphorn player turned up for his stint and was well received. The quiz that followed was highly competitive amongst the Swiss Ex teams but alas they were beaten by a bunch of 8 year old Japanese Girl Scouts!!!! We are sure there was some miscounting of the scores by the Our Chalet staff but not to worry as all the teams tucked into a chocolate fondue and were treated to a quite bizarre display of what can only be described as origami with sticks by our Japanese guests. It was clever though.
Finally, a camp fire allowed everyone to wind down after a truly hectic day.
