Brussels:
Brussels was a tad unkempt as compared to Bruges, but the architecture is very eye-catching. I decided to walk from the station to the city center rather than take a guided tour or a day pass. It was a nice sunny day, so I sat in one of them touristy restaurants in the Grote Markt (or Grand Place), and had the Kwak beer. Check out the wooden handle and the glass. The Glass never comes out of the stand, and you need to lift the it by the holding the wooden handle. It was the first time that I had two pints of beer, before mid day. Fabulous!
I met a an enthusiastic American tourist, who’d chosen to be in Brussels rather than home on Easter. So we teamed up to walk the city. She wanted to check out the Parliament houses and surroundings, and I didn’t mind as I didn’t really have a plan. We had lunch and some more beer at another open air restaurant, and topped it up with a strawberry and chocolate waffle. Yummm!!!
