Bruges! Bruges! Bruges!

Go to Bruges. Seriously. Don't question me on this. Just get on a plane and somehow find yourself in Bruges. Do it.
Okay, that is not realistic so what I will say is, "Go to Belgium - visit Brussels for a day and then get to Bruges." We went to Bruges yesterday for just a day trip and the general vote was we would all have rather stayed there. It was beautiful. The buildings all look medieval and the chocolate was the best ever. Even the chicken tasted better in Bruges. We took a quick boat tour through the canals. We gazed upon swans and ducks and castle-y looking things. We found a bar (across the street from the restaurant The Hobbit, next to The Tolkien cafe) that has 300 Belgian beers for your drinking pleasure. I had a fantastic raspberry beer and dreamily planned of hiding out in Bruges forever. It was a really, really, very good day.

Heading to Amsterdam today and will be in the hugging arms of our dear friends the Van Adrichems before the weekend is up. Hoo-ray!!

MORE! MOAR!

As always, I love keeping up with your (Kelley, that is - Jim, still waiting to hear from you haha) trademark wit and whimsy.

Dad and I went to Taco Sisters yesterday and I must have thought three times, "Oh, I should call Kelley to come meet us," but alas you're romping off in the far off wilderness of the EU.

Anyway, just stopping by to say I want more!

Love,
Ez
