Beautiful Bruges

Blue skies and 18°C so no puffers or singlets for us today!!

We had breakfast in the town square, Belgium waffles - so scrumptious. Light & crispy and very moreish.

We met our guide for our walking tour and off we trotted to find out loads of interesting facts and history of Bruges. We explored “Chocolate Street” which had over 70 chocolate shops as well as the old convent, beautiful bridges, canals, and statues of significant people including the guy who brought the decimal point to Belgium. We also saw what was supposedly a vial of Jesus’ blood in a very old cathedral 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Afterwards, we went chocolate & meringue shopping and were in absolute heaven. 😋😋😋😋

Bags and bellies full we sat for an afternoon wine in the town square to rest our feet and watch the world go by; all the while pinching ourselves that we were all together in such a gorgeous part of the world.

We finished the afternoon with a drink (Belgian Beers for some, wine for others) as we waved to boats on the banks of the canal🍻 🍻

This is the life!!!
