France/Paris-to-Bruges, Day 13

Today we spent the morning being given a guided tour around Bruges - apart from

Chocolate shops all professing 'the Finest'
Cafes with Waffles/mussels and Fries
Lace shops
Scenic buildings
Churches

There are a respectable amount of museums - some people will stay extra time here and visit them at leisure. Unlike the brewery museum, I find it unlikely the diamond museum will be handing out samples !

A quick ride in the afternoon (very small group of riders to a small village on the outskirts of Bruges 'Damme' and so it was when one of the group found his way inro a big pile of 'pate de chien' aka dog sh@t) ) adds 17km to the total - making 926 km in 3 weeks

The bikes have now been returned, stripped of any of our parts, cleaned etc - thoughts now start about heading home .... Being home isn't a problem, getting there (flying for a day and losing a day) is, although I have a rest day in Bruges anyway off the Barge.....

Packing - ugh !
