Nearly at the end
25 August 2011 | Boulogne
Sunshine and clour with westly wind
We have had bad wifi connection since Gent hence a long time since the update. Also there has not been much to tell. Gent to Bruges was un eventfull. Bruges is a beautiful city andvwe spent 4 days siteseeing. Then on to Nieupoort passing 14 swing or lifting bridges in convoy with 10 other boats. In Nieupoort we where greeted by the Belgium Classic Boar Association. Great fun. We also visited Tyne Cot Cemetary,the largest military cemetary in the world, one and a half million + names including my Grandfather.
We then decided that we had had enough of canals and so prepaired the boat to return to sea. Thence to Dunkerque, noisy, dirty,ugly and generally not good. on to Calais to pick up a friend. Then to Boulogne in preparation to cross to Eastbourne at the end of August. Pics Later.
