Belgium
31 July - 3 August

Arrived in Brussels... well there isn´t that much to say about this city. There isn´t that much to see or do here. The main square is terrific... and the light show at night was good, but apart from that there isn´t that much to hold your attention for more that a day at the max, so I was questioning my decission to come here for 3 days? I am still miffed as to why
From there I headed to Ghent... now this place is terrific, after deciding to walk to the place I was staying... why I keep persisting with walking to these places has be beat... but it was a fair walk, which I repeated when I left too. I was only here for one night, but could have spent a few more nights here. The place has a great vibe about it. From Ghent I headed to Bruges, this place is cool as well, but with heaps of tourists. Despite the weather, it was still a great little place to check out. Belgium really is the place of chocolate, on every street there is a chocolate shop shortly followed by a pub with plenty of Belgium beers! The next and last stop for Belgium was Antwerp... I have decided that I have some excesss baggage at the moment, namely the weather... everywhere I am going at the moment the rain is following me... I hope I am ditch it some where along the way. Antwerp is another cool town, from what I saw of it between rain storms and from under an umbrella. Next stop is the Netherlands.
