Day 1.. Heathrow to Brussels
December 17, 2025 in England ⋅ ☁️ 2 °C
This morning I left Heathrow Terminal 5 for Brussels. I got to Heathrow quite early and had a message of a delay because of the crazy fog so found the lounge where I ate and drank galore and it was fabulous. Then because business I boarded first where then I had an avocado and feta salad and choc pud lol.
Found my transport easily, got here a short while ago to my boutique hotel and the bedroom and hotel are both lush!!!
Charging phone a bit and then heading out to find the market on The Grand Place xxxRead more

Well I've just walked a looonnnngggg way! Finally found the light display...my sense of direction is quite awful 🤣.

Day 2 in Brussels
December 18, 2025 in Belgium ⋅ ☁️ 9 °C
Day 2. Part 1. Had a great tour around Brussels today, history around the Grand Place, town hall, Cathedral, Palace, tried some chocolates and had a waffle, really gd guide, saw the manneken pis (little boy statue as it states, having a piss 🤣) he has many outfits depending on the time of year, who may be visiting, even once hockey outfit and there is even someone who sometimes dresses him behind a curtain then he's revealed, he's also been stolen quite a few times.
As the guide Clements said..people are so relaxed in Belgium and can just make fun outta everything xxxRead more

Day 2. Evening wonder to a market xx
December 18, 2025 in Belgium ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C
Day 2. Part 2. Well I was knackered from all the walking this morning, came back to hotel for a rest, fell asleep for about half HR and thought I can't be arsed to go out...
But I gave myself a kick and went and found a Christmas market and then had another waffle and mulled wine and now feel like I've had far too much sugar 🤣.
Back at the hotel now, I've got a taxi coming for 8 in the morning as have a tour and don't fancy walking and getting lost trying to find the place so early...I'm off to Bruges and Ghent on a coach tour..how exciting xxxRead more
Traveler OMG, how much can you put on a waffle !!

Day 3. More pics of beautiful Bruges xx
December 19, 2025 in Belgium ⋅ ☁️ 9 °C
Day 3 Belgium. A day trip by coach to lovely Bruges, the day started very wet so was worried but we couldn't have asked for better weather although quite cold.
It's very pretty, lots of lovely shops, for a girl who loves to shop it's lovely for nik naks and souvenirs, chocolate shops, tea rooms. Then there was the market and then high street shops too..there's everything all near eachother so it's great to walk around for hours lol.
I even did a boat trip too, crazy captain very funny...now I'm knackered, great the coach stopped 4 minutes away from my hotel wahooooo xxxRead more
