Bruges on Bikes, Brussels and Beer

---

We spend one night in Bruges. The truck is not really suited to these old cobbled narrow streets (or is it the other way round?) Arriving, we seemed to be approaching a near dead end before the hotel appeared in front of us on the waterside. Leaving, we had to back up a very narrow street as bikes and pedestrians took their lives in their hands on all sides. We hired bikes for an enjoyable couple of hours - this is a great way to see the city.

As we are in Belgium now we have partaken on Leonidas Chocs, waffles and chips and Mayo. Also the kids have discovered a lemon juice drink that is almost impossible to drink without some very inventive facial expressions!

After leaving Bruges we travelled to a campsite just outside Brussels where we have been staying for a couple of nights. We are right by a pond of ducks and geese which can be noisy in the mornings!

Yesterday we went into Brussels to revisit some old haunts near the Grand Place - cant believe its over 20 years since I lived here!
