So, the week is marching on and although it seems like we have been here much, much longer than seven days it is also really sad to know this is our last full day in Adelboden.
The sickness bug is still clinging on but is losing the battle. Today we only have two kids down (since last evening). A couple of leaders are "beaten" as the kids call it and all the leaders are well and truly in need of a holiday after this one. Perhaps some of us are getting too old for all this physical activity.
Anyway, back to today, everyone else headed off to Interlaken after breakfast at 06:30 (another early start) for White Water Rafting. We had a lot of rain two nights ago so that should top the rivers up a little for them. Again we have four GoPro helmet cameras on location so we should get some good footage. The amount of footage and photo's that we do have from this holiday will take a while to sift through and sort the best from the worst, but that is a task for after our return.
Tonight we are being hosted by "Our Chalet" which is the World Girl Guide Centre across the valley from where we are staying. They are laying on a traditional Swiss Fondue evening with cheese and chocolate fondue, a camp fire and are also "importing" a local Alphorn player for the evening. The guy is over 90 years old and will introduce the group to a huge and strange sounding Swiss Instrument which literally can be heard rolling around the valley when played. Should be a fun evening to round off what has been a truly amazing week.

So sorry to hear that some of you have been poorly. I hope this won't be a problem for the long journey home.
Lovely to see these photos, thank you so much for keeping us updated. I'm wondering how many pouches of skittles Matt Clarkson has left? He took 12 with him last Friday - my guess is that they are all gone by now!! Enjoy the fondue - choc n cheese don't mix very well!
