Again we took the opportunity to climb up to the top of the sea shore dike. This one had been bombed by the allied forces as they landed and liberated the town.


Further north we explored the moveable dike (they allow and control the flow of water in and out) and drove a big circle of about 170km to get back to the latitude we started from.





On to Brussels via Brugue as “In Brugue” is one of JYB’s most liked films which we had watched together. Our little drive through Bruges was entertaining and with all the narrow one way streets made it a bit of fun. We just hoped the old bridges were still strong! A quaint old town.

On to Brussels and Ran. We finally found their house and then followed Ran to park EC in the nearby supermarket car-park for the night.

Ran and Bridget live on the second floor of small apartment building with 3 apartments. In the middle of Brussels. They were very welcoming to us. We had not seen Ran since his very short visit to us in China in 2008.

Had some nice wine and chatted about the past, future and present - and slept on the couch in their lounge.
