Flemish part of Belgium

...the trip continues... (Part 1)

Sunday 2 November 2008

Location: Amsterdam, Netherlands; Antwerp, Belgium

So the second part of the trip started with a train to Antwerp. We found a great and cheap Hotel Postiljon next to the cathedral. If you go there, you should book it on some hostel page, because the rates are much lower :)

After searching for some food we found a Lebanese restaurant (the only one that was full) and they had great and delicious meals for about 5 €.

Monday 3 November 2008

Location: Antwerp, Belgium

Because of bad weather we visited a Diamond museum and Antwerp zoo – both quite worth a visit.

Tuesday 4 November 2008

Location: Antwerp, Belgium; Bruges, Belgium

The main reason of going to northern part of Belgium was actually the movie In Bruges and the town Bruges. So we went there, but the weather wasn’t all that we hoped for. Anyways we saw the main things – Michelangelo’s Madonna and Child, Dalí Museum, Chocolate museum. Of course we also wanted to go up on The Belfry tower, but it was closed that day and no one even noticed us about it! We also tried belgian fries and chocolate pancakes.

Wednesday 5 November 2008

We went back to Amsterdam and looked around for the last time.

Thursday 6 November 2008

Location: Amsterdam, Netherlands; Vienna, Austria; Maribor, Slovenia

We flew back from Amsterdam to Vienna and that’s how a great trip ended.
