I am travelling!!!

Happy and busy... we picked up my friend from the airport yesterday and went to walk in Brussel...

We both look dorky here and I wear about 4 different t-shirts because I am cold, so dont mind me looking like a cabbage...



And here is a very short tour...



Gorgeous old Stock exchange place...



And beautiful streets heading to the center...



And Sveta is looking at the old doll lady...yep, she was moving LOL



And another streets parts...






And parts of the big market place....GORGEOUS!!!









I like how Art Nouveau it looks like...





And of course we had to touch a famous bronze statue that brings you a luck...This is a famous statue of the Everard't Serclaes... to read about it a little bit more just click here - http://www.trekearth.com/gallery/Europe/Belgium/photo317463.htm



And another tiny street with Etienne in it ;)



And of course we went to see a famous Maneken Pis....LOL



Turned out that each month different organisation dress him up....probably they fear he will be cold :)



And of course doors.....JULIA!!!!!! LOOK WHAT A DOOR!!!!!!



I hope you had fun :)



Today we travelling here around, tomorrow we go to Paris :) and after tomorrow to Holland, so expect more photo stories....

It looks beautiful there! And that door!!! LOL, you thought of me...hehe...yes I now feel the urge to draw it or something.
I wonder if there is a name for this obsession?! *grin*
Looking forward to seeing Paris & Holland. I last went to Holland when I was about 10yrs old!!

We go to Holland many times as my husband parents are living there :) We go to the Center Parks this time again (Paradise pools) so it should be fun.

This door was GORGEOUS! Especially this Pan looking face with horns above it - just super!

Wow- gorgeous :)) I recognise some of those places from when I went to Brussells :) In one of those little side streets there was a lovely shop which sold unicorns and faeries and dragons and witches and all sorts. I bought several unicorny things there :)
