Visited Bruges on a day trip from Brussels – very easy to get there by train. It was a sunny but chilly March day, so we took a boat trip on the canals. Yes, it’s touristy, but it’s a must do! Perhaps because it wasn’t peak season we only passed one other sightseeing boat. At one point we all had to duck down when we passed under a low bridge to avoid the long icicles hanging underneath it! An Indiana Jones moment – almost :)

Warmed up inside a restaurant with a steaming pot of moules plus frites. Perfect!
