Bruges to Oudenaarde

Navigated out of Bruges with the help of a friendly local, who stopped to offer directions without even being asked. Straight onto another canal tow path heading into the countryside. The canals here are about 4x wider than those at home, and still full of big freight barges, rather than the pleasure boats you get at home. Our Belgian maps appear to be a bit out of date, as the campsite we were aiming for had apparently shut years ago. We then spent the next 20km in search of another campsite. Finally the GPS got us to one that none of the locals seemed to know about.
