Day Twenty Five - The city of towery things

29th July - Tracy has said that Bruges is the city of big towery things - so now we have had bunkery fort things and towery things! We camped last night about one hundred and twenty miles from Bruges, so up, packed and on the road by eight thirty, got to a great campsite by twelve, on the edge of Bruges, set up the tent and caught the bus into the city to explore. Did the city bus tour to help us decide what we want to do tomorrow. So far Tracy wants to visit the Chocolate Museum, I want to climb up the belfry (366 steps), Tracy wants to go to the Chocolate Museum, I want to take a boat ride along the canals, and Tracy wants to go to the Chocolate Museum, I want to visit the Windmills, and Tracy wants to visit the Chocolate Museum. I would like to visit the narrowest street in Bruges and Tracy wants to go to the Chocolate Museum. Today was spent mostly trying to get her away from the Belgium chocolate shops, we will post some interesting facts about Bruges in tomorrow's blog. oh did I mention that Tracy wants to visit the Chocolate Museum, I did a few times, oh well that about a tenth of the times she has told me she wants to go there! BBQ tonight at the campsite, have got pork loins real beefburgers and curly sausages. Bruges is a lovely city although it does seem quite busy with tourists, will update tomorrow.
