SUNDAY 12th July 2009

Big drive all night from Toulouse to Belgium for a very quiet day at les Ardentes Festival in Liège. None of the forecast heavy rain but a wander along the Albert canal reveal that there's not much going on outside the festival. The Liège crowd take a bit of warming up but we get there in the end.
