We stayed through the weekend in Brussels before ending our NL-Belgium week holiday. It does not compare to the quaint charm of Bruges and Ghent, but we enjoyed it nonetheless. Highlights included a trip to the Comic Strip Museum (came home with some Tintin in French and English), seeing the Manneken Pils (the statute of the little boy peeing) and sampling more beer and Belgian chocolate. A friend of ours from California lives in Brussels so we were lucky to have her as our guide one afternoon. We drove out to the Atomium, then over to the fields of Waterloo. We had a great dinner together, catching up after not having seen each other for over 3 years!
