Well, le'ts be honest. I wouldn't have gone back to Brussels, that I had already visited when I was around 16, if VT member Biloune had not invited me for her 25th birthday... As I was most pleased to be welcomed by a gorgeous woman, I couldn't refuse to cross the border between France and the "flat land" (well, French people, following a song written by the most famous Belgium singer, Jacques Brel, do call "Belgium" the "flat land"), once again... I had few time there, but great time if not great weather (hesitating between a splendid sun, clouds everywhere, rain and even... snow !!). Here is the highest parts of "La Grand Place", probably the most famous square of Brussels...
- Pros:The townhall of Europe
- Cons:So coooooold in winter !!!
- In a nutshell:Biloune's nest

Hi, I live in Belgium. I see you visited Brussels. Some mistakes: it's French fries, but they are Belgian and not only Brussels is famous for beer: whole Belgium is famous for its beer. Don't hate me now :-)
Nice compact page on a cosy stay in Brussels. Party and looking around in this wonderful place. Thanks and au revoir, Paul
How was your Sunday trip? I hope you didn't had too much rain :( not the best weather to walk through but I saw it was raining cats and dogs in Paris too!
My Loooooord, this is a "gorgeous page"..lots of new concept; Regards!
great to be a "gorgeous woman"! Le genre de choses que j'ai réellement besoin d'entendre en ce moment! Merci merci merci...
Enfin des vrais frites, qui ne sont pas des French fries !
Ah, ah! T'as fait un tour dans mon plat pays natal... Super photos dis donc!
You have "seen the light" in Brussels, but forgot to invite me to your drinking party!?!?! The light must be dim!!! But I will forgive you because, as always, your photos are SUPERBE!!!
C'était quand ce petit week end ? Tu ne me dis rien, tu me négliges. ; )
good start, interesting stuff
