The purpose of this blog is to provide some information about the published photographs and the trips and events that are covered here.
Bellicourt - Le Quesnoy
On the way back from La Ferté we visited a German World War I graveyard.
More than 30.000 soldiers have been buried there...
Next we stopped at a tunnel that is still in use to tow ships through a hill.
The tower is a ship that electrically pulls itself using a chain in the canal.
Finally we stopped in Le Quesnoy, a fortified city.
While the walls are being restored, a lot of the water around is changed into a parc.
La Ferté-Alais
It has been a few years ago since I visited the airshow in La Ferté-Alais (France). Getting in and out was a little bit hectic but the airshow was fabulous, with a large range of classic aircraft from various periods.
25th Antwerp Stampe fly in
Flying displays were held in order to celebrate the 25th Stampe-Vertongen fly in at Deurne Airport in Antwerp.
The weather on Sunday was really nice so that we could enjoy this "mini-airshow".
Meanwhile regular commercial activities were still ongoing at the International Airport.
Canada
Some years ago I visited the western part of Canada, traveling from Vancouver to Calgary via the Rocky Mountains. This time I went to the eastern part and spent some time in Montréal and Toronto.
I also took the opportunity to visit the Niagara Falls.
Belgian Air Force Days
No Sanicole Airshow this year, but Belgian Air Force Days at KeeBee (Kleine Brogel). I was there on Friday for the spotters day and on Saturday for the airshow. I hardly took pictures on Saturday because it was too crowdy.
