This blog tracks the daily activities of scouts and scouters from Troop 1018 on their Summer 2006 trip to the Kandersteg International Scout Centre located in Switzerland.
Thursday, July 20, 2006
Today, Troop 1018 scouts and scouters fly over to Switzerland.
Information
At 3:00PM, all Troop 1018 members going on the Kandersteg stip must arrive at Dulles International Airport with all necissary gear and passports ready. We will check our bags, go through security, and be ready for our flight today that begins at about 6:00PM.
The trip will take approximately eight hours. We will be landing in Zurich at about 8:00AM Swiss time and later taking a train to Bern, Switzerland. Scouts will be encouraged to sleep on the plane, as jet lag may be a problem for them tomorrow morning. We will tour the City of Bern, then take another train (needs confirmation) to Kandersteg, Switzerland and finally hike to our campsite at KISC (Kandersteg International Scout Centre).
That's all I have for now. Cheers!
