April 27th - Ostend Outing

Hi Walkers,

Now that we are at about the midway point of the month here is an update on the Ostend trip that Marie-Jo will be conducting on Friday, the 27th. Let’s hope this great weather continues to stay around for awhile! This will be rain or shine event! We will plan to meet at 10:40am at Gare Central and take the 11:00 (+) train to Ostend. If we have at least 15 participating we can get our own exclusive train car!!! Party time!!! We ask that each attending bring a packed lunch and if the weather is not good we will eat on the train. Otherwise, we may choose to eat when we get there. We may then take the tram south to Knokke or a stop in between but the idea is to spend the afternoon on the coast and get in a good walk too before adjourning to a café/patisserie for dessert and coffee/tea in preparation for our return trip later in the afternoon to be back in Brussels by 6pm. Marie Jo asks any ladies who have reached the exalted age of 65 to advise her as your roundtrip tickets will be only 4E’s!!! See, there are advantages of being a Senior Person!!! If you have not yet signed up but would like to go on this outing please advise me asap. I will be leaving on a trip on the 17th so after Tuesday, please advise Marie-Jo if you have a change of plans or want to join the group. Thanks, Marie-Jo, Sheila, and Sandy.
