So we didn't make it on the canal paddle boat, but we did get to ride bikes in Brugge. We tried to ride a Tandem bike, you know the two seater but it was quite difficult on the cobble stones and the owner wasn't too happy with our riding. It was pretty funny though ;)
The windmills were really neat and they were located right on top of pretty green hills; this gave us a neat view of Brugge. We also got a great view this morning because we hiked up the Belfry, a big clock tower. At the bottom of the Belfry is where two fry places our located. The fry places have been in competition since the 1800's which is pretty crazy! That is where we got our dinner last night, and also where we met two nice Belgium guys. One only new French and had a cute baby and the other was a metro-sexual! We talked for awhile and the conversation was pretty interesting/funny.
Brugge was really beautiful; the canals and narrow streets were adorable. It is quite different in Brussels. It is huge here; big sky scrapers and a little dirty. There is also a really diverse population in Brussels. I am getting kinda hungry now; so I think I might end here. Off to get a Belgium waffel, or excuse me, a Brussels waffle. There square and traditionally are served with sugar. We will be adding chocolate to ours, afterall, we are tourists!
