If there’s anything like a glorious day outside to purge the constant ghastly reminders of those troubles past which have hung in our minds like the dark grey clouds that hung low in the sky outside, it has to be moving gently on a boat away from it all, on a river filled with clouds.
It’s hard to believe we are barely twenty kilometres from the centre of all of that, yet here we are in the middle of nowhere, or as close to it as exists in Belgium, being three kilometres or so from the nearest village, without a care in the world.
Except for trying to avoid the cows.

These are my favourite cows. They are so muscular. Beautiful image.
Glad we didn't run over one! The colours were so vibrant and the light so clear on the water today that I actually had to de-saturate this a tad! I still don't believe them and I was there! :-)
That's being on the water for you, isn't it? Nothing else seems to impinge and all is well with the world. "One day like this a year would see me right for life" (Elbow)
