Day 455 - Brugges Buildings
29/3/12 - I love the building styles in Brugge, its what I imagine Amsterdam buildings to be like, I like the stepped frontage on many of the buildings we saw in the city.
Day 454 - Messing About On The River
28/3/12 - Brugge has many canals running through and around the city, little boats full of tourists sail up and down all the time and it seems very popular.
Day 453 - Belgium Daffodils
27/3/12 - While walking through Brugge we passed this field of daffodils, we were not sure what this place was but it had a church and a few other buildings so I imagine its some kind of monastery or something.
Day 452 - Yet Another Door
26/3/12 - Here is another door, this one in Brugge, I love doors, they can be so mysterious, what is hiding behind them? what is their big secret, all these questions.
Day 451 - Brugge Canals
25/3/12 - This was my first trip to the city of Brugge and it was a good one, Brugge is such a lovely place, we had a little adventure getting to the city from the cruise ship in Zebrugge but that adds to the fun of the day. Brugge is such a beautiful place, with plenty of Chocolate shops to keep everyone happy.
Day 450 - Blankenberge
24/3/12 - Here I am in the town of Blankenberge just a few miles along the coast from Zebbrugge on the Belgium coast. we stopped here a short while before catching a train into Brugge.
