Ep07: Tanks, memorials, stopovers, hiking and beer testing. Touring Belgium in a motorhome

Not everyone's cup of tea this one, but we wanted to learn more about what happened to the Ardennes during the closing of WW2, when Hilter made his last stand and started a surprise attack on Luxembourg and Belgium. We knew nothing about it, having forgotten all our school history, so followed a path from Dinant in the west to Bastogne, close to the Luxembourg border.
On the way, we saw many memorials, flags and of course, tanks. A constant reminder of those that lost their lives. The USA, supported by the British had their work cut out for them during the cold winter weeks of Dec 1945 but successfully liberated the Ardennes by the end of Jan 1945.
Having a motorhome meant we could retrace the key locations in the battle and we stayed at some great stopovers, which were good value for money.

WE did the Bastogne tour some years ago, the new museum had only just opened but was very moving, when it followed the lives of some of those involved, a German Officer, a US Paratrooper, a local school teacher and a small boy , superb museum and well wort a visit, Malmedy was very moving as well, great video

Another fantastic vlog. I have spent hours planning our trip to Belgium and Luxembourg and still unsure til I see your vlogs. I think I'll drive to Dinant and wing it from there.🤣🍺

So much to see and so easy to use a motorhome, you’ll be fine winging it! 👍

Obviously the beer tasting is research. For a book? Or to just compare to beers at other destinations? Have one for me Andrew.

Any excuse to drink any beer 🍻 😂👍
