Another easy day trip from our house is to Bruges, Belgium. This was our second time there, and probably not the last. It truely is a fairytale city. Our friends from Boston wanted to experience another country while they were visiting us, so it was a no brainer where we would take them. Once we arrived, we climbed to the top of the Belfry (kids included, very impressed with them) for a wonderful view of the city. Then we took a canal tour were you can see and hear about the town's very old history. One of the best parts of the day was sitting in the market square, eating warm Belgian waffles covered with hot Belgian chocolate and powdered sugar. Everyone should exerience that once in their lifetime. We finished off our trip with dinner before a relaxing drive home (the kids were so worn out, they slept the entire 2 1/2 hours!). I think our guests enjoyed it as much as we did.
