We caught a 9am train south toward Brugges, Belgium and stopped in Antwerp for a few hours on the way. Temperatures are hot today and we arrived in Brugges at the breaking of a thunder and lightening storm, bombarded with hailstones the size of concord grapes.
Drama aside, we are settling into more old world charm in classic Brugges with its touristy shops, waffles, Belgian horses prancing down the cobbled lanes and canal-side rows of red brick buildings. Quintessentially Europe!










Loved Brugges and all its canals.
