November next! Hosts for the day are Mia and Herman van Hemeldonck (De Groene Swaen, Trintella 44), Nancy and Herman Naegels (Beta Leonis, Trintella V), and Sigrid Coppens with Gustaaf Bergé (Blue Heron, Contessa 32). The latter whom have taken on the task of executive project managers. They were successful in sorting out an interesting program for all ages, against reasonable costs: We will be welcomed in the hallway of the Van der Valk Hotel from 9:00. This is where we will discuss the practicalities of the day. We will take the bus to the Red Star Line Museum in the Montevideostraat at 10:15. We will arrive at approximately 11:00 in the museum after a city tour. We will have an hour and a half, from 11:00 till 12:30, to see and experience the remarkable history of the Red Star Line. We will walk to restaurant De Groote Witte Arend in the Reyndersstraat at 12:30. It is about a 20 minute walk so we have arranged for transport for the members who cannot walk this far. A wonderful Burgundian lunch will await us at 13:00. After lunch, at 14:45, we will walk to the Groenplaats, where a tourist tram will take us around to the most wonderful treasures Antwerp has to offer. The tram takes us back to Groenplaats at approximately 16:30. We will walk back to the bus from there. The bus will wait for us to take us back to Hotel van der Valk. We will arrive back at the hotel at17:00 and will have time to relax and get spruced up. We will have drinks at 18:00 and start the Annual Members’ Meeting. No later than 19:00 we will be able to enjoy a truly Belgian buffet dinner. We have managed to keep the costs of participation to the program to per person. €65
