I wanted to take my son on a trip on his own to celebrate the end of his GCSE’s. The plan was to raft down the river Arre from Thun to Bern (about 3 hours). Everything was going fine until a fast flowing section saw us hit a bridge and capsize. We were rescued 300 meters down river by some lifeguards who worked at a swimming pool next to the river. Although neither of our phones survived, fortunately the car key still worked and after a short ride in a police car we managed to make it back home to the mountains.
At the start of our journey in Thun. Fortunately my phone had uploaded this photo before it was lost forever.
