Hike #9: Langdorp

Distance: 12 km
Time: 3 hours
With: Ingrid

Having been forced to cancel our February walk because of the flu, I was looking forward to meeting up with Ingrid yesterday.  We picked a circular route that started in Langdorp, a village just outside of Aarschot.  As is often the case, our route started at the church:


We were a bit apprehensive about the weather, but as we started out the sun was shining, despite ominous clouds on the horizon:


A few unusual sights during our hike - a windmill:


And this funny sign -  "yield to gnomes"???  Unfortunately we didn't see any gnomes.


So through the woods we went...


And then back into the fields for the end of the hike


We did get rained on, and it was cold, but here is proof that the sun did come out at some point:


...and at times the sky was gorgeous:



We ended up back where we started, at the church, where we found a cafe and had some hot tea to warm ourselves up.  It was a good day.

That church is gorgeous.
What a pity, I want to see the pic of a gnome!

We have koala signs in our country but never gnome ones.
