Keep on Trippin'

Day 1
16km (not 20, like I thought yesterday!)

I made it!
Hill up, hill down. Thanks to Ms. S. my feet are A-OK. I got to borrow her walking shoes.
Tomorrow 8km. 

Keep on trippin'!










Day 2
I had no reception up in the woods of La Wallonie. So my blogpost didn't get through!
We walked for 8km today. Through the woods (with no paths), through a horse pasture, through cow shit and mud (sorry Ms. S, I will clean your shoes!). I wasn't keen on walking through the woods. You all know I hate spiders soooo badly + those woods made me think of the forbidden woods from the Harry Potter movies and you have to admit that Hagrid has some huuuge spiders there. I was panicking at one point where I felt something crawling up my face. It was just my hair but I thought it was a spider web with a spider. 
ANYWAY, I made it through these 2 days and I had a lot of fun. I got to know some people a bit better and it made me learn once again that you can be wrong about a people's personality...

Hot Walk

My boyfriend participated in a triathlon again today. With our walking club 'De Stevige Stappers' we planned a route along the triathlon track. 31°C! It was really too hot for almost everything. Poor boyfriend! Swimming, biking and running in this heat. Exhausting! But we did half of our route and ended up at my parent's house for a refreshing drink.
Unfortunately, my athlete couldn't finish the race. His tubes went flat in the second round of biking. He couldn't repair the hole :-( . But he did his best anyway. A picture of his 'wings' as proof:



Respect for anyone who finished the race!
