Project Amsterdam: Roadtrip Part II

Since I last posted, much has taken place. I have some catching up to do, so my hope is to make a few posts to get up to date.

After Jerome, Keith & I left Antwerp, we drove for about an hour to Brugge Belgium. I really didn't know what to expect other than a few of the guys at work said to go here if I got the chance. Well now I know why. WOW!!! This place was awesome...everytime we turned a corner there was a new WOW. It's an old medieval village that was not destroyed in the war so most of the ancient buildings are in tact and have been preserved and well maintained. We spent the afternoon walking all around the village. There's an old church....AMAZING, beautiful canals, more chocolate stores, interesting and beautiful old building structures with artistic detail hard to comprehend. We ran into another Grand Pubah parade, Belgian girls practicing a cheer routine, the village square, and lots of tourists. The Europeans are into fries met (with) mayonnaise, so I had to take a pic of this little fry guy in the window of one of the stores. Ick, huh? They serve fries with mayo; you have to ask for ketchup and then you get charged for it. I didn't even know about Brugge until I came to Europe this time. If you ever get to Belgium, I highly recommend making a trip to Brugge. I could have spent much more time wandering around....it was a very enjoyable excursion. I have a ton of pictures and would love to share them all, but instead will share the highlights.
