Today the guys will enter their first race in Belgium. We will drive to Geluveld (Zonnebeke) later in the day.
I woke up at 8 after staying up late last night doing some work and then attending to Addison who was coughing hard. Today started out nice with a temperature of 7C, some sun and predicted high temperatures of 18-19C. This morning we witnessed something typically Belgian:
a finch competition.
The road was blocked so people could set up their cages. It is amazing how easy it is to block a public road in Belgium.

| Detour: local traffic and finch people only |
Here are some shots of the bird people in the heat of battle:
And a close-up.
