Canadian War Cemetery, Bergen op Zoom

Run:

I ran a loop around most of Bruges today. Very quiet so early on a Sunday.

Ride:

We rode on a bus today. Our first stop was at the Canadian War Cemetery in Bergen op Zoom. A local couple presented a short history of the local WW2 battles.

Our new hosts came with us to town. Their family has a pub where a local festival band was practicing when we arrived. 

We went on a walk around town and had some lunch.

We had one last group dinner at the airport hotel Van der Valk. Very nice, but we all ate too much.

Time to get dessert!

In retrospect we appreciate the single plated serving for dinners on the barge. It was a proper amount. 

Tomorrow we fly back home!
