While holidaying in Belgium Harald and Leisa Fichtner met up with members of Belgium II and VI in Brugge. Madnick Van Den Block  and Mike De Bruyne were the most hospitable guides in a city they themselves barely knew. Many coffees and laughs were shared and a most delicious lunch of kip met frites en slaw.

Of course there was not enough time. There never is when having good times with good people. We will be making more trips to Belgium over the years and forsee a good friendship. Of course we welcome them back in RI anytime they wish to visit.

And of course there is Austria in 2014 for the International Convention. There we will meet more of our Brothers at Arms. Untill then...
