If you know one thing about Belgium, it's probably that they make damn good waffles. This is true. If you know a second thing, it's that some of the best chocolate in the world is made in Belgium. This is also true. And if you are a beer drinker, you probably know the pleasure of the rich and delicious flavors of Belgian beer. I sure do. You may also enjoy said beer accompanied by the unofficial Belgian national dish of moules frites. It's incredible the Belgians aren't 300 pounds each! Maybe they leave the massive feasting to the tourists. In either case, we experienced all of these things and more with a quick weekend trip to Belgium in celebration of Michael's birthday. Our first stop was Brussels, which is an interesting city for maybe an afternoon, but after the obligatory trip to the Grand Place and jaunt with the masses to snap a picture with Manneken Pis, we were kind of done with Brussels. So on Sunday morning, which was Michael's actual birthday, we nixed our Brussels plans and headed to Bruges - which is an absolutely magical city that was the perfect place to spend an afternoon in celebration of the wonderful man I am lucky to call my husband. To see all of the photos we took in Brussels and Bruges, check out our image gallery.
