Hope
everyone had a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah or whatever you might celebrate!
This
year, hubby and I are hanging together in Europe since we only have 10 days off
from work. It's simply not enough time to run all over the US to see family
again. Sorry guys!
Instead,
we've been exploring Brussels and
its fabulously festive Christmas markets.
Coming here was a great choice and recommended by one of our fellow expat
friends. Brussels is only two hours away from London by train; plus it's filled with charm and easy to get
around.
Through
January 1, 2017, you’ll find Christmas stalls and events taking place at the
Grand-Place in Brussels and around the Bourse, the Place de la Monnaie, Place
Sainte-Catherine and the Marché aux Poissons. Every hour, a spectacular light
and music show lights up the Grand Place, the city’s central square which
features elegant historic buildings dating back to the 14th century.
I almost felt like I was in a fairy tale! The area does get quite crowded, but
we tried to arrive early and still had lots of fun.
Hope
you enjoy this lil taste of the Brussels Christmas markets!
