Choco-Late in Bruges Belgium

We feel sick…

Bruges, Belgium; Barack Obama in Chocolate!

We’ve just been scoffing sample after sample of the real deal Belgian chocolate at the annual chocolate festival…and didn’t we enjoy that! I wish I could say we had so much that we’d never do it again… as if!! If only it was on tomorrow too.

We left Paris, and grandma, this morning. Daughter was very upset leaving both, however I think the choc-fest took her mind off it for the time being! There’s already been plans made re daughter returning to study at the Sorbonne University, and that grandma will visit for an extended period. I guess time and talent will tell…

We must have been in Paris on one of the busiest weekends ever. Not only was it May Day, it was a long weekend.

All Parisians out, all weekenders came in, blimey! We must also confess we had nothing to do with the riots either; no, nothing (didn’t even see evidence of them). Still a great 3 days had by all. We love Paris too.

A day spent swanning around Bruges tomorrow will be a very pleasant way to spend a Monday. And then London, here we come!
