Belgian Battlefields
... another township we could not drive through as the main road was being reconstructed. This has happened to us three times in the last two days and makes things very difficult when you have no idea where detours are taking you and the Sat Nav lady is telling you to "turn right" into a road that is well and truly blocked! As a consequence of one such detour we stumbled across a major Belgian Cemetery near Houthulst - I had wanted to visit here but had given up hope as it was well ...

... weapons, turned tail and ran as far away as they could.
For lunch we return to Polygon Wood for lunch at the ANZAC Rest Café. Our host Johan Vandewalle laid on a fine spread for us at a very reasonable price. Johan is a passionate amateur archaeologist and war historian and following lunch he shares with us the story of the Zonnebeke 5. The Zonnebeke 5 are a group of 5 Aussie diggers uncovered in September 2007 when a local man was preparing a trench for some ...
