We are having a rest day in Basel! It gave me an opportunity to try and contact British Airways again. They are impossible to reach. I blasted off an angry email to them saying we will take legal action when we come home. We are now dealing with cheap gear issues (such as broken tent pole etc) and we are close to purchasing another navigator and portable hard drive to replace the lost equipment. I am particularly annoyed at having lost the 9 Lions Club flags we had for exchange with Lions Clubs along the way. It would be a great excuse to call them and receive the extra publicity.
In Basel we did find the guide books we had and replaced them again, so at least we wont be led up the wrong mountain path! Basel appeared to be open for business (France seemed to be on hoilidays during July/August with streets deserted and shops shut).
And here is the Dutch article!

Dear everybody,
The article was quite good. Unfortunately it will take too much time for me to translate it all.
It explains what the disease is all about and the Dutch and English name for it. The Dutch one coming from the tough sputum that settles in the lungs and the English one coming from the small cysts which are formed inside the pancreas. Furthermore it tells everybody the important message that there is hope for people with CF, instead of all the frightening information on the internet. Antibiotics and research have changed the course of the disease and will change it even more in the future.
Good luck with the cycling! And go on with the interviews: The publicity is realy good!!!
Lots of greetings, Linda
