Thursday 22nd August 2019 - Go Karts and Waffles

AJ and Esme joined me for a morning walk to our favourite patisserie where we bought pastries and fresh bread for breakfast, enjoying them in our sunny cockpit along with some extortionately priced freshly squeezed orange juice. Once cleared up we headed out for some Go-Kart action... one of AJ and Esme's favourite things about Oostende and they were keen to share this experience with cousin Ollie.

After finding her old favourite ice cream cart version was now too small, with her feet constantly hitting the brake bar by mistake, Esmé opted for a Kart where you leaned to the side to steer. Where as Ollie and AJ chose ones which seemed to resemble a Harley Davison Trike!

 Patrick and I strolled whilst the kids raced along the seafront. Ollie finally seemed to be really enjoying himself and once the hour was up we headed into the town in search of our old favourite waffle shop. As always it took a crazy amount of time wandering aimlessly round the bustling streets and alleyways to finally find it but it didn't disappoint!

We wandered back to the boat via the market and had some chill out time in the heat of the day before heading back out for some more go-kart action... this time all of them taking Esme's lead and getting the tippy tippy ones!

Then back for dinner in the cockpit followed by a walk along the pier to watch the beautiful sunset!
