Budapest - Yr 1, Hm 5

While Pam was off touring the Netherlands, I spent the day touring the beaches of Belgium.
To my surprise then next day, my tour covered every coastal town between the Netherlands and France.
My morning starts in Gent where I just hopped on a random train to see where it goes. It went to the coast, right next to a large modern shipping port. The train station, the sidewalk and the beach was almost completely empty of people.
However, I found a tram line nearby. Cars arrive every 10 minutes and it runs boarder to boarder. The full ride, one way, takes 2.5 hours.
Most of the coast reminded me of Southern California PCH or Miami Beach. Lots of condos lots of people on the sidewalks the are full of restaurants and cute boutiques. These towns are separated by open beaches and camping areas.
It was a wonderful day of discovery of places to come back and explore in more detail.Read more
