I came back from Belgium!
I will post the journey one by one because it needs time to pick up
photos and edit them at once...
Today starts from Antwerp.
Leaving London at about 8 in the morning, we arrived at Brussels about 11 including time difference.
Then we took another train to Antwerp.
The decorative look of Antwerp station was waiting for us when we step out from the train.
These were very detailed and massive! the ceiling was so high and beautiful.

Unexpectedly, our hotel we booked was super-far away from the central.
We meant to use Trams and Busses, but didn't know that they are not running on Saturday and Sunday...
So we walked, walked, and walked...
After that we used a taxi to get to the central of old city though...
Luckily it was not too expensive.
And there were plenty of gorgeous buildings when we get there!
The jagged-shaped roof with very detail decoration which looks like a waffle,
these high buildings were standing closely.
the view from the riverside was also great, in the pinky sky of sunset.
Most of the normal shops were closed, but we could see the restaurants and pubs
even in very narrow dark street, which looks nice.
There were so many good-looking restaurants, which all had own style.
But those restaurants are really expensive, if they decorating inside in very unique style.
So finally we choose the one which got a line of ramps around the edge of the house,
which looks cute because it reminds me a ginger cookie for xmas.
Belgium is famous for Mussel recipe. So we ordered a course...
I don't really like oysters, but these were so delicious...!
