Final Post

Well what just happened? A week of adventure, culture and much fun - that's what!!

But how come it went to quick?

It only seems like yesterday that we arrived, went on a walking tour followed by a few hours in a few in pool, next day we were wild water rafting in the rain, then playing on inflatables in a lake in temperatures of over 30 degrees.

I'm sure you child will eventually remember everything and tell you for themselves what they did.

From my point of view EVERYONE got something out of it, faced a fear, learnt something, tried a new activity, pushed themselves and each other, depended friendships, but most importantly came home with memories to treasurer.

Take a look at the photo montage from the week by clicking on this link https://youtu.be/HvloaNjPVEU and don't forget to leave comments in the blog for all to see.

Arrival time

If no more hold ups we should be back at the co-op at 00:30. Please do not park along the road where service bus stops as we will be pulling up there. If no where for the coach to stop we will have to find an alternative location in the village.

Follow where we are in real time hear...

We appreciate everyone will be wanting to see their child and hear about the week of adventure, but please let us get the bags off the coach rather than trying to just 'grab and go'. Makes it easier for everyone and no one gets in the way while trying to get the bags off.

See you soon 😀

The journey home

We are at Heathrow and going through passport control, border checks and then baggage reclaim.  Will update on an exact ETA once we get the A120. So pick ups can stay in your houses until the update 😀

On board

We have now boarded the aircraft and now waiting for departure. It maybe back on schedule within a few  minutes. Next update will be when we arrive at Heathrow.

Through security

All through security and shortly heading to the gate. Scheduled departure is 20:31 so arrival in UK is now expected at 22:01. Could all change, so will update when we can and as we leave Heathrow on the coach.

Off to the airport

Everyone is back in uniform, bags loaded into trailer and now heading to the airport. Keep an eye on the blog and Twitter @silverendscouts for updates on the journey back to the UK

Shopping

After climbing it was off into the city for some shopping.  The Scouts went off in groups with a couple of adults to spend any money they had left.

We are busy doing the final check for fluids in hand luggage and putting the souvenirs in the hold bags before then getting the minibuses back to the airport.
