Antwerp, Belgium
On Wednesday, May 3 I thus left the port of Antwerp around 18:00 after
33 days on sea to go to Brussels invited by Olivier Lecourt and his
wife. I arrived at his residence around 19:00. We spent under discussion
most of the evening of voyages around the world. Then I visited his new
MAN truck built by
Action Mobil.
The following day we discussed again with sticks broken during a
breakfast typically of Brussels. I left them with regrets around 10:00
for Troyes en Champagne, the city where I had spent all my youth in the
family house. I continued to the Loges-Margueron, cradle of my paternal
family, where I collected on the tomb of my parents and I greeted my
cousin Janine before bivouacking on a tailboard which formerly bordered
a family field of apple trees. The following day, Friday, May 5, I moved
towards Trans en Provence to find my house, Villa Thébaïde, which I had
left on April 27th, 2015 to travel into Americas. I was able by the way
to take part in the presidential elections. From this date I began a
medical trip which was going to occupy me until the end of July so much
the times of the appointments were long; moreover the cabinet of
ophthalmology returned me to the Greek calendars in November 2017!
During this time I dealt with my truck as well as the organization of
two short trips in Sardinia then in Portugal before considering a long
journey in Southern Africa.
I booked a return ticket from Toulon to Porto Torres,
Sardinia,
with a departure on Sunday 8/27/2017 at 22:00. and a return on Monday
10/30/2017 at 22:30.
