Everyday Adventure for Beavers, Cubs, Scouts & Explorers in Beckenham - part of Bromley Scout District

Tag: Bruges

Home safely from Belgium.

We made it safely home with only a couple of hiccoughs. Everybody safe and healthy but rather sleepy. Facebook posts suggest that some of the scouts stayed home today but hey! I was in work at 8.30 today so no sympathy here 🙂
