So after a exhausting 3 day trip around Belgium our last day saw us heading over to Germany for a day in the mines. UE really has an awesome community, we hooked up with some flickr/Fb contacts we'd never met and they gave us the guided tour. Big thanks to Pierre and Ro Mo for taking a day out to show us the sights. Pierre's passion for these mines is overwhelming and his knowledge is second to non. Apart from the incident with the Police, a gun and a bicycle it was an awesome day and a great end to an awesome trip!!
