Belgium: Brussels & Bruges

March 10-14

My friend Mary & me did not have much down time in Copenhagen before catching a flight to Belgium. We actually stayed in an Air BnB; it was my first time and quite nice!

The first day there, we took an hour train ride to Bruges. We got so lucky while there…the whole weekend was warm & sunny – yessss!

We wandered around the small, sleepy town….grabbed delicious Belgian waffles & fries…we took a boat tour (the tour guide switched between Flemish, English & French – so impressive), and went to the French fry museum – not kidding.

Such a lovely town. I highly recommend going 🙂

Brussels

While there, I got to utilize my minimal French skills, but not gonna lie I was impressed with myself. There is undoubtedly room for improvement, though ahah. I probably said only 20 French words the whole time. Better than nothing.

We spent our time strolling bright Brussels. Our schedule was essentially eat, sit, then eat some more.

We saw the square, a chocolate museum, and the famous Delirium (a bar with an obscene amount of beers on tap).

I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Belgium. I think if I were to go back soon I would want to check out Ghent.

It was so much fun! Strolling through a sunny city can be quite peaceful, actually. Bisous!
