In
the morning on April 11th we left Amsterdam for Bruges. When we got there we walked around the
city. I absolutely fell in love
with it when we got there. There
were chocolate shops EVERYWHERE with canals just like Venice (just a lot
larger). There were cobblestone
streets everywhere along with horse and carriage rides and swans. In the afternoon I tried the Belgium
hot chocolate and I was blown away.
It was the BEST hot chocolate I’ve ever tasted – I couldn’t even believe
how good it was. We spent the
afternoon going into almost every chocolate shop we passed comparing prices (I
got a lot to bring back to Canada!).
We then got Belgium waffles as an afternoon snack. I got mine with cherries on it and Mike
got his with caramel on it. In the
evening we had pasta in a box for dinner, which was surprisingly very good (and
cheap!) We then went back to the
hostel to the pub attached to it to try Belgium beer. I had the cherry beer, which was super sweet and tasty – wish
we had it in Canada! The next
morning we had breakfast at the hostel, checked out, and went to the park by
our hostel to see giant windmills.
After taking many pictures it was then time to head to the train station
to make our way to Paris!
