After the sea came Bruges. Bruges is one of the few places I really enjoy visiting in Belgium... but not in spring/summer because inevitably you are in Bruges with 3 millions of tourists. Sadly this was the case today. We even bumped into one of our colleagues, visiting Bruges with his parents (sounds familiar?).
With the crowd I gave up any perspective of a good picture, unless you want to have the Befroi with the fair or the church with a group of Japanese.
After a short walk in the city we settled down on a terrace in the shade for waffle and/or ice cream (note... amazing Melon de Cavaillon sorbet... good that we'll be there in August). Rested, we queued 30min or so for the boat tour.
The "captain" of the boat was quite entertaining, full of stories, and I grabbed the opportunity for a few shots. Probably not the best ones, but give a feel of a boat tour on the canals of Bruges by a sunny afternoon.
Bridges in Bruges... including the lowest one (Wolfram had to bend his head).
If it was not invaded by tourists, I think I would enjoy living in bruges.
