I assume you will also try to include the Passchendaele Museum at Zonnebeke on your travels. It's really good, and definitely worth a visit if you have the time. Don't know what the Cloth Hall museum in Ypres is like these days, as we haven't visited for a few years, but that too was spectacular if only to see the model of Ypres after the devastation. Have a good trip.
