Set off from Gravelines at about 11ish and stopped at super u for fuel and gas then headed for the evacuation beach at Dunkirk.Had a walk along the seafront to the war memorial had a cafe au lait. The area was a bit like a run down seaside town. We then headed for an Aire at Bailleul a small town near the Belgium border. The weather is dry and sunny,25 degrees ! had a walk and bought a fresh baguette and a fancy strawberry tarte to share.

Derek got up at about
9.30am and walked in to town for fresh croissants from the boulangerie our first on this trip. After breakfast we packed up and headed for Tournai in Belgium just south east of Lille across the border.When we arrived we had lunch filled up with water and emptied all the waste tanks.There was a circus behind us just packing up ready to move on.We then moved on to an aire at Hornu which was down a cobbled street in front of a museum. Derek then decided to move on again so we finally stopped for the night at an Aire called Boussioulx. We now have realised Belgium is a bit of a dump and very industrial.
