Sun Shines in Brugge

After a well-slept night, I woke up in the morning and found out I was in a small bed in a hostel where I have chosen to be my room for the next few days. I intended to stay in Brugge, Belgium as I am passionated in discovering one place rather than in visiting many places with a shorten in time.

Brugge is full of history..my knowledge is not enough to describe all the best of it but to me it is a small city where the old is still alive! and the new is in ... I would say I enjoy the look of the city..they keep the old buildings there but they still move forward to the future..however I don't like it to be changed..

Brugge was a lovely, sunny city throughout my visit. The people were so kind in a way. One of my concern was they had a business smile for me..only where I had seen a real sincere smile was its post office where a gentlemen served me when I bought some stamps for my postcards.



most of my time in Brugge, I was walking or taking buses around the city visiting from north to south, east to west...sightseeing and sitting under the sun

I noticed so far there was nothing to be authentic apart from the chocolate...Belgium chocolate which I have to say it is SUPER DELICIOUS!
however, I haven't had much both food and chocolate on this trip..I should have more..

Slow the Time...Enjoy the World

It was a long starting from the morning of the mid day of the week...

Sun was so concern to bring out a little of the brightness for a nice walk down the street towards the rail station where the journey began

Almost missing the train bacause of careless checking of the ticket believing I've had another 15 minnutes before the departure..fortunately, I reached the station just about on time.

Sitting on the train was not a bad idea, as usual, I've got more time to think about my life & certainly my holiday. A little writing could waste my perfectly free time. The train was quiet through the journey..sun was playing hide and seek behind the coulds...

Arriving at London was just one third of my whole journey as I had to take Eurostar to Brussels, Belgium and a local train to Brugge where was my first destination.

The journey on Eurostar was such a pain to me, the underexpexted small to fit seat was a big surprise. I wondered how Europeans could fit in those seats.
The next bit was the ChannelTunnel where the train went through to get to France as the first entry before passing through to Belgium. It was about 20 minutes according to the announcement but it seemed to be ages in there.
The first impression after getting out of the Tunnel, the sence of France was confused me. It was similar to England apart from the sun that was brighter and the feeling that was unexplanable. The first sign on a road the train was passing advising with an English word 'STOP'. It kept moving towards Lille where was the first stop in Europe mainland. Now, I hardly waited to see how Belgium is like...
Leaving from Lille, it was not so long to get to Belgium. I was a little tired and nervous from the crowded station so then I failed to have a short tour around Brussels before going to Brugge. I caught the first train out to Brugge.

Finally, I stepped on my destination, the historic city of Europe, it was full of people like in Brussels but it was a big concern for a new comer. I briefly took a bus to a hostel I've booked...and spent the rest of the night in my bed...
