Visiting Bruges in Belgium for the first time and I'm like a child in a candy store. Though, the chocolatiers will give you a run for your money. Belgian Chocolate is divine. Grab a map, grab your camera, phone or friend and take a walk. Following the walks on the map will take you to Historical Windmills and along canals where the boats take tourists on tours. My advice. Walk! A cafe or two might be in order also. Enjoy! #belgium #history #water
Let the spring begin!
