Summer Camp Leysin, Switzerland
Excursion Day!
Today was Excursion Day for all the campers, it gives the kids a chance to get out of Leysin and experience something new. All the campers are able to sleep in a little, have a late breakfast and start their activities later than usual.
The Reds started their day at the Cailler Chocolate Factory, they first took a tour of the building which included an interactive history of Cailler and a look at the process of creating the delicious chocolates. The last room the kids entered was the tasting room, they first learnt how to taste the chocolate they then were set free on over 20 different varieties of Cailler chocolate. After lunch all the campers jumped back on the bus and headed to Vevey for shopping in the beautiful town.
The Blues had a very exciting excursion, they started by taking a coach to the beautiful city of Bern. Once there they visited the famous Bern Bear Pit, the bears of Bern now live in a 6000 m2 park along the banks of the River Aare. They can still access the large bear pit, which is now a historic monument. After the Bears the Blues had a chance to do some shopping in Bern and get a bite to eat, they then headed to Busker Street Festival. The Festival had over 30 stages all playing different music and a ton of stalls selling food.
The Yellows started there day in the beautiful town of Vevey with some retail therapy. Once the kids had spent some money they got back on the coach and headed to to the Tropiquarium in Servion. They ate lunch then went went to explore the aquarium and zoo.
