They have been running the campsite for 18 years now. For the previous 18 years, it was a farm with chickens and pigs. However, the family could not live on that because meat prices were kept so scandalously low. They faced a huge mountain of debt. At one point, the government proposed a buyout scheme, which they eagerly accepted before switching to the recreational sector. The piggery, which had only been there for 11 years and had not been paid off, was demolished again. Pure capital destruction. With the state's buyout money, all debts had not yet been settled, but thanks to a side job, they eventually did. The family now has no regrets about making that switch.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The route turned out better than I expected. I feared miserable tarmac roads between fields, but fortunately it went <strong>mostly on country roads<\/strong>, occasionally interspersed with a shady forest.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After the long dusty Tobacco Trail, I passed\u00a0<strong>fish ponds<\/strong>\u00a0bordered by a smooth lawn with shade. This was too tempting not to lay down body and soul in the fresh grass and have a <strong>15 minutes to 'ground'.<\/strong> On Facebook, I always get advertisements saying that earthing is beneficial for your body's recovery. The positively charged free radicals in your body would be neutralised during contact with the earth by negatively charged electrons present in the earth due to lightning strikes. That seems punitive to me. Is this yet another medical fable to sell 'grounding blankets'?<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A few kilometres before <strong>Hamont-Achel<\/strong> I passed by the <strong>Mulken<\/strong>, the little house that once belonged to an 18th-century water mill, but of which not much could be seen now. They did sell there <strong>homemade farm ice cream<\/strong>, which I could not resist at this sultry sweaty afternoon heat....<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The last few kilometres through the Achelt woods I passed another <strong>geological circle<\/strong> with rocks that dated from the <strong>primary<\/strong> (500 million years ago) to the Quaternary (juveniles from just 2.5 million years ago), and a reconstructed pile-lined\u00a0<strong>prehistoric burial mound<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the beginning of the long Chapel Street, I met Lutgarde at the special\u00a0<strong>'Chapel for the fallen'<\/strong>. Lutgarde, who is responsible for all Achelt chapels for the church plant, told me all the history. At <strong>16\/17 June 1941<\/strong> crashed not far from here a <strong>British bomber of the RAF<\/strong> down which was on its way back from a bombing raid in Germany. The six-member crew, all in their twenties, lost their lives. The municipality then promised to build a chapel after the war in memory of the victims who lost their lives for our freedom. In <strong>1952, the chapel was inaugurated<\/strong>. Since then, a tribute has taken place every year in the presence of friends and relatives of the six fallen. Until about three years ago, some very elderly Englishmen still turned up to attend the tribute. A dying generation, but the <strong>Chapel continues to bear witness to the horror that took place then<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After 1 km of Kapelstraat, a very warm welcome awaited me with a soft drink and a portion of olives and Acheltse cheese in the garden at\u00a0<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/156963010@N04\/51245712435\/in\/album-72157715168515776\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><strong>Rudi and Kathleen<\/strong><\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since I am staying overnight in a village centre, I went wide for a change after a week of one-pan camp dishes: a cod dish at Grand Bistro Napoleon, under the old Napoleon mill.

Since I already got +100 km in the legs last week, I opted for the short route to the nearest campsite.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My to-do list was long enough to keep me busy for 1.5 days. Moreover, I also got all my clothes washed - except for my swimming costume, my 'during the wash' replacement suit - and the tears in my trousers got sewn. I hope those trousers last for a few more weeks, because I don't have another one to go with them....<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tomorrow, a <strong>fairly long haul to below Opoeteren<\/strong> on the agenda.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-318cb29 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"318cb29\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">June 14: Kinrooi - Opoeteren (19.53 km)<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-df4eb8a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"df4eb8a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nothing special happened today, nor did I pass any captivating landscapes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Outside a <strong>5-some shimmering concrete kilometres<\/strong> To get through Neeroeteren - just during the heat of the day, of course - I walked mostly over <strong>dirt roads through quiet agricultural landscapes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The terrain here is already starting to <strong>glide<\/strong>, the Ardennes announce themselves: 99 altimeters instead of the usual 10-15m.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Point of interest for budget long-distance cyclists or hikers: I spend the night at camping Zavelbos. A large campsite, well located in the middle of nature, well-equipped and modern sanitary facilities, fast wifi all over the site, a quiet tent meadow on an island in the pond with plenty of seating.... But: very expensive for one person with a tent without electricity: 23\u20ac, shower and hot water lavabos to be paid on top. However, I got that hot water for free because I step for a good cause.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also note: kitchen tavern closes at 5pm on Mondays and is closed on Tuesdays.
