Travel the Planet
We arrived at the campsite in Ypres - the sign said full, but we asked anyway, Can we camp? Of course. Two nights? Of course. Wifi? Of course. Free? of course, anything else you want? Free beer? Of course. Then the lady went to another room and returned with 2 free cans of chilled beer! Apart from the cycle path that turned into a rutted grassy track it was an easy sunny ride to Ypres in Belgium. Two nights here, our first day off. Visited the Flanders Fields museum and up into the belfry to dance to the ringing bells - well worth it. After 3 nights of cooking for ourselves we have enjoyed 2 nights in Ypres of eating and drinking out - it's a hard life being cycle tourists! Back on the road tomorrow.

Brian welch Remember both that Belgium beer is very strong. Looks amazing enjoy
Alan Heeley The amazing thing about Ypres is the comparison between the total destruction of 1918 and now, reconstructed just as it was. And what did we get? Coventry in concrete.
