Yesterday we were in Brugge belgium and found a lot of chocolate shops, infact it seemed that every second shop sold chocolate and then the other shops were lace shops. However I am getting ahead of myself. Yesterday we went and visited Ypres and the museum was moving, however there was too much to read at that one museum. We then traveled to Brugge and thus we found a fantastic town that was very friendly and great for cyclists, which is a nice change from home.
There is a lot to see in that town but unfortunately we didn't have too much time we could spend in that old town, however it would have been nice. We had to leave to get to our next stop 4 hours away. But before we made that trip we rented some tandem bikes and we rode around the town. Learning how to ride that type of bike was kind of difficult but once you mastered that it was a hoot. We rode around the town and saw some fantastic windmills however they were only for decorations. We have had some difficulties in understanding people but most people really tried to help us, except in France, not sure why they were different, oh well.
Our car is great and I am having fun driving it is different.
Oh well that is all for today.

The French, are well, french
Brugge is the best city I've ever visited. So quaint, gorgeous, teeming with history. *sigh* Loved it.

I guess you're in Holland already? Check out Rotterdam for architecture and Finnish sailors' church store. Let me know in which 'cross race you'll do your dash in maple leaf speedos.
