Hey Flanders! (Northern Belgium)


Ghent! Such an amazing city. Ancient buildings but a very vibrant and quirky place. Different to Bruge as it feels lived in not just there to be seen by tourists (like us). It has two uni's so has lots of young people about.


Our picnic spot in Ghent above; - Also sea monster waiting to pounce on unsuspecting cafe patrons.


The wonderful flat and extensive paths in Belgium.


Do all animals have mostaches like Poirot in Belgium ?
Antwerpen central station is amazing! wonderful marbles interior and huge.

Lovely street of houses that felt like a set from a fantasy film. Many styles right next to each other from art nouveau and gothic to modern minimal. This whole area felt like Melbourne to us but amped up a little. Notice the tram tracks.


Amazing Graffiti art on the overpass in Antwerp.
