In search of mussels and frits

We left Paris this morning, travelling by train to Bruge, Belgium. Upon our arrival we took a taxi to the car rental office and much to our surprise they had a lovely Mercedes SUV for us... bonus! After that we made our way to our hotel near the old city centre. As with our hotel in Chur, this hotel is a very historic building with wooden plank floors and very high ceilings. The views from our room is quite nice  (photo one). The down side is that Delmer and Ron had to park the rental car about a kilometre away. There is little parking near the hotel as the streets are very narrow, and what spaces there are cost 3.50 Euros per hour.  

By 4:00 p.m. we were off in search of some old world city scenes, chocolate, waffles and last but not least a good feed of mussels and frites. We found it all. Tomorrow we are off to the battlefields and memorials between here and Caen.
