Just got back from our latest trip to Ypres. The itinerary this time was as follows:

 

Saturday 14/10/17

Over to France and then drove to Coxyde to pay our respects to Cpl. Tindale.

Down to Ypres and booked in at Ariane.

Menin Gate and then meal at 'in't klein stadhuis'.

 

Sunday 15/10/17

Paul Reed's new 'Walking Ypres' in hand, we did the Menin Gate-Helfire Corner-Potijze walk (6.8 miles).

Back to the Ariane.

Menin Gate and then meal at 'Den Anker'.

 

Monday 16/10/17

Back home.

 

I will post a few pictures.

 

Regards.
