My friend Bridget is fond of oriental dance...So for her birthday, we organised a little belly dance show!!!
And of course, she did not know it!
Her belly dance friend invited her to a show of a very good professional dancer in a real cabaret (22bis, rue Marché au fromage). You can imagine her surprise when she discovered that the dancers on the scene was us!!! We made a little choreagraphy and then the guys (pharao's!) joined us to offer her food on big plates ;-)
The surprise did work very good and we had a lot of fun together!!!!
My dear Charles organised a party in the cabaret 22bis (belonging to her mum). He asked to his invited friends to surprise him on the way that they wanted. Thinking that it was better to prepare something for everybody to make sure that his wishes will be fullfilled... I asked everybody to dress like in the 20's, the time of the Charleston!!! I sung a song with its sister and mum about Charlie dancing the tango), We let him dance and sing on the Billy Flint song (Chicago) with his new tap shoes and then the 4 girls on the pic. made him a special catwalk with all "Charles"-clothing!!!
Afterwards, food, wine and disco non stop!!! It was wonderful! And he loved it!!!
For me, this party was a first occasion to sing in public!!! Well, it was great ... even if I discovered that it was better to take singing lessons ;-)
Anne is fond of movies...So we decided to dress like a movie hero for her birthday in the restaurant called Halloween in Brussels ;-)
Around the table, we had Gladiator, Harry Potter and her girlfriend, Indiana Jones, The Priest and an elfe in the Lord of the Rings, Nemo, Dracula, Scream monster and Satine of the Moulin Rouge :-)
I spent the new year 's weekend at the coast in the house of my friend Maud and we were 16 and we had a lot of fun !!! The theme of the new year's party was the comic strips (we are proud of our Belgian Speciality!) You can recognize Tintin (BeChar), The Tunique bleue, Asterix, Dupont,...
For my last birthday, my friends suprised me with their presence in a delicious Indian restaurant and then we went dancing in an Irish pub...it was great to make again a giant "écharpe humaine"!

Hello, Sarah! Brussels is very attracting and interesting! Thanx!
Congratulations - your review on art nouveau on yur Brussels' page is really lovely! Would you know any nice antique shop there where I could purchase a lightlamp in that design at a fair price? (I´ll be visiting B' by the end of this month) Thanks.
I like that city a lot. Ciao!
Really interesting page. Great photos. Brussels is prettier than I ever thought it was. Thanks for showing me that. I love pages that show you what the town really look like :)
Hi Sarah, Enjoyed your tips , have saved some to travel guide. Can you recommend good 3 star or better hotels, close to rail as we intend to take several day trips over border & to Bruges.
Thank you very much for listing this! One night, my friends & I stumbled upon this place & I had the best mojito of my life (I used to live in Miami, FL so I am not exaggerating) & I had no idea of the name or location of this. Now I know!
Great tips! Brussels was my first destination outside of North America and I loved it!
