... strawberry beer so we were a little apprehensive. I took the first sip. It was horrible! Not as horrible as the strawberry beer, but pretty horrible! It was the same bitter taste. We were determined to finish the bottle though seeing as we had paid so much for it, so we got by holding our noses each time we took a sip. Blech!
We thought we would leave it there and not push our luck so we went in search of a place for dinner. I had read about an Italian place that was ...
... my feet and I needed the protein recharge. Snap, snap, snap, snap…photos done and I’m done with the Grand Place. Chocolate shops everywhere. Yes, it’s good. Yes, it’s better than See’s. But they’re in every nook and cranny and you start to feel like you’re on Mainstreet USA in Disneyland. So I struck out to find the peeing boy statue which is Brussels’ other claim to fame. Through winding ...
Brugge, West Flanders, Belgium fec... cobbled streets, red shingled roofs, canals, and historic buildings.
We first walked to Bruge's cathedral, which was still great to see despite all the cathedrals that I’ve been to already. We then headed toward the main plaza along with the bunches of other tourists flocking around Bruges. On the way, we had our first truly Belgian experience: waffles. Needless to say, I was ridiculously excited, and my waffle-chocolate sauce ...
... 8217;re shown to our room by a kindly elder gentleman that spoke very poor English. The King’s room, as it was called was quite a nice place with a large bed, decorative chandeliers and a top notch bathroom with an awesome shower. It’s been the nicest room we’ve had of yet and we’ve decided that B and B’s are the way to go in Europe, because they cost about the same, or less than hotels and are usually very ...
Brugge, West Flanders, Belgium christineandalFirst thing, we went on the essential canal cruise which was a different way of seeing what we had seen the day before and learn a bit more about it. Again we came across the fleamarket and the chocolate moulds I had looked at the day before had been reduced in price so I saw that as a sign and bought 2 matching ones. After checking out the restaurants, we decided to go back to our favourite sandwich shop and of course, our favourite patisserie for dessert. We have ...
Brugge, West Flanders, Belgium kiama_on_tour... which was again absolutely divine and the coffee was okay (better than London anyway).
Greg went home for an afternoon siesta and the girls and I went for a walk along the canals and came across the market in what was the Fish market- I bought a bracelet, then we came across the flea market which was very interesting. I saw some chocolate moulds that were from the 1940’s but they seemed a bit ...
... after a little siesta, we went to the Folk Museum which was interesting. Nothing was in English but was fairly self-explanatory. We walked past a windmill looking for the Lace Museum- well, I was looking for the Lace Museum while the girls just wanted to go back to the room. We found the museum and Tara & I went in, only to find that the women doing the lace demo were on a break. We had a look at the church which was part of the ticket and it was a bit strange with an alter ...
Brugge, West Flanders, Belgium kiama_on_tour... in Australia. There was a little girl of 2 years and a half, but that was not so much fun than playing "I crash my cuistax against yours" type of game with the 2 other ones. And the baby Juliette, well ...for Killian it's another world already. Not to sure what to do with her! The afternoon we decided to have everone cycling around the sand dunes ...
St Idesbald, Belgium isax... its beaches. I expected it to be very hot since Bruges was very warm, but I brought a hoodie anyway. It's a good thing because it was very windy and cool in certain areas. I grabbed a ****** hot dog bun and sat at the church square for a moment. Then I walked along the seaside promenade and had a snack. Ostend is definitely not the nicest seaside resort town I've been to - it's got a gritty feel to it but still provided a nice ...
Bruges, Belgium pwongSeptember 12 On monday the 12th, Leen was borrowing me her car so I went to spend a part of the afternoon in Zaventem and had chineese take away for the first time. In the evening I left with the car to Leuven to get my thing but instead of leaving right away I took some sleep and left in the early morning around 5am without some direct plan of where to directly go. So I took the way to Mechelen, and then Willebroek and saw the sunrise in Temse where I made my first stop along ...
