Chocolate Brugges! What a wise decision to spend some time in my favorite medieval city of canals. I've been there three times and always stayed at least a week. I had to because everyday for lunch, I went to a different chocolate shop and had four dark chocolate treats for lunch--as you said, so many choices. Amazing that your journey is already over--I've so enjoyed traveling with you!
