Malmedy


We were back in Belgium this past weekend to check out some of the changing leaves in the Ardennes mountains. Unfortunately it was a bit too early for brilliant colors, but we discovered some great new areas for hiking, biking, and skiing.

We stayed in the town of Malmedy, which is in the far eastern part of the mountains very near to the German border. Interestingly enough, that region of the country speaks only French so my Dutch was of little value. But we managed pretty well because all those trips to Montpellier for Genesys have left me with enough French to get by in a hotel, store, or restaurant. The French influence was also very apparent in the food. Every meal that we had, from the breakfast at the hotel to the dinners out on the town were fantastic. I had a wild boar stew that would knock your socks off! It ranked in the top 10 meals that I’ve ever had in my life.

This photo is of Malmedy, taken from an overlook that we hiked to on Saturday evening after dinner.
