We take a day trip (one hour by high speed train) to Bruges, Belgium. "Venice of the North" as its called because of its winding canals, stone bridges, and plenty of pedestrian zones. Oddly, there is more English spoken here than in the big city. Mainly because the British flock to this place.
The architecture has turned to more of a Dutch flavor since being in Brussels.
Its a small city, easily explored end-to-end in an afternoon.
We are just two folks who reside in suburbia but have a hankerin' to try outside the box. We both lost weight on Weight Watchers, and developed a new appreciation for quality foods, made without junk.
For Eric, its all about the beer. He's a homebrewer constantly on a quest for that one beer that would actually match his talents. Some have come close. The quest continues.
For Cheryl, the foodie-challenge is finding the right foods without gluten. Thankfully, there's always wine, chocolate, cheese, and brussel sprouts.
