A Grumpy Day
Day 12 – 20.5 miles to east of Bokrijk
And an extra mile detour. As promised the temperature was cooler today. However overnight the rain came. Started at 2.30am, so not much sleep after that.
Another Sweaty Day
Day 11 – 18 miles to Viversel
Didn’t sleep well. Not sure why. Camp packed and hiking by 7.00am.
Probably worrying about being moved on, since I had camped most inconsiderately!
Tired
Day 10 – 18 miles to near Diest
Was not firing on all cylinders today. Very hot again. And today I had the joy of mosquitos. I hate them, they hate me.
Much of Interest
Day 9 – 18.5 miles to Westerlo
A very varied day. The usual mix of forest and field / track and tarmac, but quite a lot to look at.
A few mosquito bites to start the day when striking camp. Got one on my big toe (how?) and its been itching all day.
The day started on the hunt for the watermelon.
