Once upon a time.....

Our trip to Belgium was a bit like

being in a fairy tale

As you enter the historic city of Brugge

you are swept back to the

Golden age (12th to 15th century)

 

This romantic city of winding

canals dotted with swans,

gilded architecture, great beer,

beautiful lace, and delicious chocolate 

is a dream come true

 

 Great Beer

 Beautiful Lace

Delicious chocolate

 Our guide gave us the history of this ancient

city as we slowly toured the canals 

in our water taxis

He told us this fellow was

in this window everyday watching 

the boats pass by

  but not always awake

 

 and if all this beauty wasn't enough

our apartment at the House of Season's 

was equally as gorgeous!

One evening after dinner

we found a group of Italian school girls

singing in the square. It was as if

heaven had touched earth

The sound was incredible

A moment I will never forget

 Brugge at night is a fantasy land

Performers in the square

Thank you to my wonderful

English family for taking us

on this awesome trip

Goodbye beautiful Brugge

Next post.......France!

By the sea, the beautiful sea

Continuing my tour

of the little seaside towns

of Cornwall

Next we come to St. Ives

 We felt like

we were in a postcard

 

It was our one and only

blustery day

 Let's take a little walk 

through the narrow streets 

of this tiny town

and now let's pop over 

to Newquay, another seaside

destination

 Very popular with the tourists!

 

Maybe you'd like to stay at this lovely

seaside home, accessible only,

 by it's own private bridge!

 Cornwall, 

THE PLACE TO HOLIDAY!!

Seaside Villages of Cornwall

Continuing to tour the coast of

Cornwall, England

 Welcome to Boscastle

 Let's take a walk through

this charming village 

We could stop in at this small

cafe for crumpets and tea

As we make our way to the sea

we find someone having

a bit of fun

and a few boats waiting for the tide to return......

 ..... alas we reach our destination

 The sea

and it's rocky coastline

 

I love it's rugged beauty

and the charm of this

small village
