We’re in Brugge today, actually leaving shortly. Whoever it was — there were several of you — who said Brugge is wonderful are right. Beautiful city, lots to look around at everywhere — oh, the rooflines, the buildings, so dreamy. Luckily the bikers aren’t as nasty as they are in Amsterdam and Antwerp. I just love these medieval cities! Great architecture, great Belgian waffles, lots and lots of chocolate (fortunately for me, not my most favorite taste). We got to see a Michaelangelo, apparently one of the few outside Italy. Question: why is the Baby Jesus mostly shown naked? In Antwerp we saw a beautiful Madonna and Child statue that they dress, like they do the Infant of Prague — when he does get dressed, the Baby Jesus has GREAT outfits!
Tonight we must decide between going to Indian food buffet or lobster night in regular ship restaurant. Oh dear. Everything is fabulous onboard, as we knew it would be! Hope everyone is doing swell, we miss you even if we do want to stay here longer.
Wafflingly yours, l&j
In case, you were wondering, WE LOVE CHOCOLATE, if you need an excuse to buy some. 🙂 Sounds like a fab trip. We miss you!!
Hmmmm. Good thing you said that!
