Well we’re back from Brussels. I don’t know why people say that it’s a boring destination – we were there for four days and didn’t get to see everything we wanted to see. There are as many museums as there are in London, restaurants and chocolate shops everywhere, and lovely little ‘estaminets’ that serve traditional belgian beers and food (more about those later).
It is a rather expensive destination though; don’t expect to spend anything less than about £30 a head for dinner, including drinks. We also got the worst of the European weather over the weekend – it snowed every day – click on the image below for the big version where you can see the snow flying past our hotel room window!
I’ll be posting something about the holiday each day for the next few days, and there are over 500 photos to upload. I can’t really fault it for a weekend break. If you’ve never been you should really get over there – there’s something for everyone. They even knew I was coming…
