Paulette's walk from Overijse

As it turned out, Paulette couldn't actually join us on the walk but she did come to the starting point to give us a plan of the route. And no, we didn't get lost!
It was a perfect day for walking - not a cloud in the sky, but not oppressively hot. However, we were ready for a seat in the shade and something cool and refreshing when we got to the end.  Simple enough you would think, but not on this particular day. The lowering of the awning on the terrace was a matter for negotiation and a surprising number of refreshments were "off". Ice cream sundaes, for instance.  Oh well, maybe just a couple of scoops of ice cream?  Yes!  Or then again - No!  Some basic soft drinks had also run out, but eventually we all found something to our liking and settled down to chat, and ponder the mystery of why the more you run a roller over a dressage arena the rougher the sand becomes...
