Burges and beyond

A leisurely drive to Belgium and to the canal city of Bruges.

A beautiful old town with lots of narrow bridges and cobble stones.

We had a lovely Felmish lunch of rabbit and beef stew while wondering where all the people were. Every street was very quiet and although a few cars around, it was amazing for the lack of noise and people.

Then we walked towards the Square and were overrun by tourists. As we walked out of the restaurant we literally walked into a wall of humans following their guide with the little flag above her head.

Despite the sea of humanity we managed to step into a chocolate shop, I mean how can you not do chocolate in Belgium, and bought a couple of goodies! Sorry no presents for anyone as the chance of it melting before we get home, is very high. Better off in our stomachs here. Love you Kate. ❤️

Popped into one place shop and couldn’t help wondering how much of it is actually made in Belgium by hand. I do love Belgian lace and did pick up an ornament for our Xmas tree.

After walking through the square and along some beautiful canals, we are at our rest stop at another lovely farm with heifers that have the biggest bottoms I have ever seen. Botox butts!!Read more
