Climb every mountain
There aren’t many mountains in Belgium. So we decided to climb one on our summer holiday, the day after my birthday. Our choice was the Grand Veymont, with a respectable altitude of 2,341m. One thing I learned was that, when the paths are steep and rocky, coming down is often no easier than going up. It was also pretty cold up there – even when it was pushing 32° a thousand metres lower down – but the views were unforgettable.
