Waffels, friets, moules and more
We`ve arrived in Belgium. Between the Mac and the Flemish, we can`t quite figure out how to post photos yet, but stay tuned - we head back to London tomorrow.
Travelling at baby-speed means more relaxed schedules and lots of naps, so we`re feeling the jet lag has passed. We`re staying at a sweet little B&B not far from the centre of things and have walked all over the city. We were warned the country wasn`t terribly baby-friendly, but are relieved to find people are very welcoming of Clare - in fact, the cafe-owners are holding her right now, teaching her to make a latte, I think.
Bruges is absolutely beautiful. Everywhere you turn is post-card worthy, old and clean. Cobbles everywhere have made us happy with choice of backpack carrier over stroller!
We have eaten waffles and fries (friets) everyday so far. Last night`s dinner was gourmet - Flemmish stew with applesauce and -you guessed it - friets. We even toured the friets museum (just after the chocolate museum, of course).
Tomorrow we take the train back to London. Clare was so busy on the way over, Katherine forgot to be afraid of going under the English Channel.
Oh, one more food note. Lattes here are served with whipped cream and no less than 4 chocolates. So far our clothes still fit, though...
