Bike&Boat: Ghent to Dendermonde

We cycled downstream for 34 km through a diverse landscape along the tidal Schelde River to Dendermonde, a quiet little town, located at the junction of Dender and Schelde Rivers. We enjoyed the ride today which had beautiful suburban tree-lined streets and paths with gorgeous country homes, a variety of animals ( goats, horses, dogs, alpacas), a small church, another beautiful castle, and lunch at a park on a lake. Dendermonde has a beautiful town hall located in the main square. It also has a church which has the hole from the top to the lower floor where a German bomb hit the bell and the bell fell to the lower floor. We enjoyed a beer to end our day😀👌Evenings are fun because we chat with everyone about the day. We try to sit with different people for meals. There are many countries represented onboard.Read more
