Brugge again…

Brugge again…

Sunday, 28th October 2018

Our journey to Brugge was marked by a number of events. The first of these was a very stressful moment when we thought we might run out of fuel but thankfully managed to fill up by diverting off the main road. Secondly, having previously been directed down some very rural lanes which were not necessarily suitable for a motor home the size of Alan, we chose to ignore our sat nav directions. This accounts for the large loop north on today’s route. We then had to wait for the drawbridge to lower.

Brugge is one of our favourite cities and it is always a pleasure to return. Is it the architecture, the canals, the Tin Tin merchandise, the beer, the bars or a combination of everything? This time, we were however, very  mindful that Ralf had been scared by the horses hooves on the cobbles and is not really a “townie”. We did however feel he should  be introduced to “Bar Bertie” as this is a favourite hostelry and a bit of a tradition for us when we visit this city. Whenever we visit with John and Belinda Robinson, although there are so many fabulous places to sample Begian beers, we have to drop in here. It was, as always popular and we felt one was enough with a dog in tow and  there are . . . .

. . .  so may beers to sample. This one was a delight, quieter and more Ralf friendly…
