Ancient Brugge

My 4 nights in Brugge has been great. Since it was a business trip, I didn't get too much time during the day to see the sights but did try to take as many photos as possible (it gets dark early). Brugge is a laid back city with extraordinarily architecture and delectable cuisine. The people are friendly, releaxed and love their bier's. The trip was tranquil; dining at exquisite restaurants, drinking full-bodied 12% biers. The serving size of meals are greater in proportion and in no way does it compromise it's taste. If you are a vegetarian, you will not fit in. The belfry tower is a medieval bell tower right in the centre of Brugge, it is a very well known symbol. I only managed to take a photo of The Chapel of the Holy Blood. The chapel holds a sacred vial said to contain a cloth with blood of jesus christ. There were so many places to see and with so much history, Brugge is must for all.

It's Wednesday night and I am at home blogging. Blogs are meant to be quick thinking of opinions but my blogs generally take about 90mins to write. Although this is mainly a diary to remind myself of my travels. So I'm off to Iceland in 3 weeks and Norway in 4 weeks, better start saving instead of drinking it away.
