  • We arrive at Camping Juegdstadion, Ieper in Belgium. This is our last campsite on this Euro tour. It's Trev's birthday and we meet up with the @yorkshiremotoroamers - Kev and Tracy. We take in the atmosphere of the beautiful town and attend the last post ceremony at the famous Menin Gate.

    Great video and we were your neighbours at this site. Beautiful town and moving experience at the Last Post ceremony. We will definitely go back

      It still was moving, the fact they still keep doing the ceremony whatever the weather or scaffolding.

    Beautiful place Ypres. Thank you for making my birthday a special day this year. Really enjoyed Ypres and although the gate was shrouded in scaffolding, we still managed to capture the atmosphere of the city. More lovely memories 😃👍🏻 💙Trev

    A moving place!! Shame about the Gate.
    But we still get the atmosphere - very beautiful and evocative place.
    Safe travels Bob and Jenny.

    We were there this year and there was a ceremony just outside the gate that evening which we attended.
    Thank you for bringing back a lovely if sad memory

    Another location for our ever growing list of places to visit and to pay our respects. Renovation and conservation are always necessary but such a shame when it’s at the same time as your visit. You’ll just have to go back. 😊 Listening to the Last Post must be very moving. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes H&M. 😀

      Thanks for that, the ceremony was still very moving and still appropriate.

    It’s a cracking little campsite there, you were parked in exactly the same spot we were at the start of August. As a forces veteran the Menin gate ceremony has a lot of meaning for me and we have been there for it 3 times now. At least the weather was better for you than it was for us we got soaked walking in to Ieper for something to eat.

    Happy Belated birthday to Trevor, I like how they still do the last post. We went to Belguim in junior school, all i remember was cheese clogs and some toy that you put water in and it peed 😂

      Then you definitely should go back to Belgium! 😂

    I enjoyed watching this Bob and Jen. You looked after us too well to shake us off! Lol!

    Well done Bob and Jenny on another excellent video I’ve always wanted to visit Ypres and the menin gate what an experience to hear the last post I bet it was so emotional there looks like you had another lovely day shame about the building works but looks such a pretty town and again so clean like much of Belgium we have visited
    All the best to you all Daniel

    Was here a few weeks ago - did the noise from the steel factory bother you?

    What a pity to click for building works. We seem to always coincide with scaffolding when we're visiting places!
