Day 6 - first hike day

Today’s weather forecast was for day and overcast so we thought it would make a perfect day for hiking. The campsite owner recommended an out and back route to Achouffe, a small village with a famous brewery. The route was a nice mix of small country lanes and woodland, a bit muddy in places and not too technical.
It was a 10 mile hike in total so we decided to stop for lunch at the village hotel / restaurant / bar - plus it’s our 19th Wedding Anniversary so it was nice to have a meal out.
We had a Goats Cheese Croque and shared some vegan Bitterballen (no idea what they were but very tasty!). After a couple more beverages, we started the hike back stopping at the brewery shop to buy some presents. Charlie picked me up a shower cap - only it turns out it’s a bicycle seat cover! I did think it was a bit small for me…. We also had a slight run in with a pack of angry Boarder Collies - rather strange and a bit scary.
Nothing else to report from the rest of the day, everyone’s quite tired out now from all the fresh air and sunshine!Leggi altro
