Only a part of the site has been abandoned, there is still military activity present in this area. This made it harder to completely go wild <img src='http://koen.vereeken.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>When we initially arrived there, the site was completely lined with barbed wire. Despite of that, the place was still a mess. There were several buildings in the area that functioned as a gym, places to sleep, classes, a hangar for trucks and cars and two big office buildings. The only interesting building on this site was the first one, a long building with a kitchen, probably a weapon depot (or is it just my imagination..), a bar and a washing area.</p>
<p>Every building we&#8217;ve visited had used bullets (blanks) spread around the floor. Other interesting things we&#8217;ve found were some pamphlets containing procedures when finding a bomb and talking with terrorists. Glass was broken, doors were hit down on the ground, the ceiling began to rot.</p>
<p>In the first building, someone put some red paint on the wall, which resulted in a super composition for a picture.<a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Small" title="Military Domain Goetsenhoven" href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4032/4374573812_e21c09dd94_b.jpg" rel="lightbox[135]"><img class="alignright" style="margin: 5px;" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4032/4374573812_e21c09dd94_m.jpg" alt="Military Domain Goetsenhoven" width="161" height="240" /></a></p>
<p>What really made me feel bad, is the fact that these buildings itself were still in a pretty good state. It took a lot of money (tax money) for constructing these buildings, and the government is just letting them rot. All you hear on the news today is that they don&#8217;t have enough space to house illegals, well I can tell you, they probably could give space to 500 people there without doing much extra costs.</p>
<p>The three pictures below have been created using HDR. It&#8217;s not really realistic, but I like the result.</p>
