The Glen' s Monument in Knokke Heist, Belgium. During the ceremony a man appeared on his balcony and quietly displayed his Canadian flag.
Our piper Nelson then walked over and played the bagpipes in appreciation of the gentleman's kind gesture. A very special moment indeed.
John standing on the south side of the Scheldt estuary. The sky was so clear you could see to the other side. The Glen's fought here on October of 1944.
One of the windmills we passed enroute to Hoofdplaat, the Netherlands.
Cathy standing on the dyke. The Scheldt is on one side and the low land of the Netherlands is on the other.
Belgium waffles with fresh fruit .... lunch for Cathy in Brugge!!
A local musician in Brugge, Belgium. We enjoyed some great sunshine too.
John in front of the most photographed site in Brugge.
A reception for the Glen's at the City Hall in Knokke Heist. A very warm welcome for us, and the end of a great day.
