Exploring some more (wolves) around the Botrange

Kabouter had to do a show-and-tell at the end of the year about an animal (non-pet) and he choose to talk about the wolf. 

That turned out well since we had a weekend in the east during his preparation week and we could return to the exposition in the Centre de Nature de Botrange.  We really studied all information again and I took a picture of each panel in case we needed the info afterwards again, while Kabouter diligently on my instruction made some scribble notes of what he wanted to present or mandatory elements he had to cover.

After we had our priorities ticked off, I took the boys for a walk. I'd not drive to Belgium's highest point on a sunny day and not go for a walk.  Contrary to most days I decided to head via the nature educational trail and head down in the direction of Ovifat and then climb back up.   It wasn't an official walk loop but connected some trails so that worked out well. 












Then we headed back home where Jan had in the mean time scrubbed all our garden furniture in a nice chore...Time well used.

@Evi: als je meer gedetailleerde info hebt over mogelijke afstanden enz, we zitten er twee weekends per maand, dus inmiddels ben ik goed gewapend in stafkaarten en weet ik wel beetje wat welke afstand is enz, waar je langs venen of bos komt, wat drukker is of niet, ... Het is er in elk geval heerlijk.
Laat dus zeker maar weten als je richting oostkantons (Waismes, Robertville, Ovifat, Sourbrodt) zou trekken. Wie weet kunnen we elkaar eens ontmoeten :).
