🔔SUBSCRIBE ➜ http://bit.ly/SBYouTube⛵ Come aboard as we continue our voyage on the inland waterways from Belgium to the Mediterranean. We set off from Ghent and see the old shipbuilding town of Temse, before leaving the tidal river Schelde behind to join the the Brussels–Charleroi Canal.

Thank you very much to Thierry Pauwels (https://www.youtube.com/@thierrypauwels) for providing samples of footage of the Bells in Temse:

A note on "The Bells" section of this video: No individual countries or alliances were singled out for criticism. No old wounds were intended to be opened up. On the contrary - the hope is that we the people can all work together so that our children can live in peace. W@r should not be on the cards for any of us, despite the best wishes of the corrupt to instigate it yet again. (This is coming from someone who served in what would later transpire to be an i11egal w@r brought about by a c0rrupt government. I believe it is my now my duty to do what I can to make amends for this by calling for peace in a world which is being dragged back towards darker times... Not on my watch!)

Thank you very much to the artist who created the music used in this video:
