Thank you. Knew we had something, but one can only really assess the shot "back in the lab ".

Poor Joan. She really was a child of her times. It is sad that for most, if not all, of human history war has been such a major force and "warriors" have been so glorified.

The whole shebang about Joan is really something! Thank you for the stories which were more than we thought we wanted to know but glad to know anyway!

What an interesting day! So much to see. But I don't know how you can do so many kms and so much climbing in bad weather and with headwinds and still enjoy sightseeing! I am very impressed. Chapeau! I could never do it.

The track we are following is the "official" one for EV19, the Meuse a Velo. Someone who designed the route has a warped sense of humour. Yes, bathtubs are great! Only problem for Dodie is, with her knees, she always worries about being able to get in, and more importantly, out. She has had difficulty with this on the past!

We have been using Cycle.travel site for routing and navigation the last several days and am quite impressed with it. Really like the color coding of roads based on traffic volumes. Seem to route you on very quiet roads. Prefer it to Komoot which I also have been using but don’t like its goat track feature. Bathtubs are one of my favourite accommodation features.

The one on the left looks like he’s thinking “why are you here … look at my feet”

That’s a lot of hiking routes but you’re right that we would need lodging nearby!

I'm more intersted in what his little winged friend has to say. I bet your grandson Joe might have a good quip for this one.

Sometimes they drape white mesh like this over buildings under repair, but no real kñowledge of why it might be over the fortress wall.

I tried to post a question earlier regarding the white drape hanging over the fort wall, but it would not load. Any idea what the significance of it could be?
