Very pleasant ride to Hasselt, which is lovely. When we rode through Maastricht, the centre of town was closed to cars because there was a memorial service to comemmorate the tenth anniversary of 9/11.
In Hasselt we were lucky enough to discover that the central cathedral and belltower was open to the public because of the 9/11 anniversary, so we climbed all the way to the top of the belltower. The bells were being rung as we were standing right next to them. I was surprised to see that most of the belltower and the steeple was constructed in solid oak, not bricks.
