Antwerp - A new Berlin?

 

From north of France it's a short way to go to Belgium (and The Netherlands, you will see tomorrow). A morning after the wedding last weekend, we were wondering what should we do. LMK mentioned Antwerp and how great city it is - and only two hours away from there where we were at the moment. We didn't need to be convinced more and off we went to see this small city in Belgium. 

It was funny to travel to a place, which you know nothing about. Even though our stay was only a one night in a nice little hotel, I can say that I will return there one day. Such a charm - next time I'd like to spend a long weekend there. From Antwerp we went to see my friends to.. where? Story will continue.

After the wedding in France you woke up in Antwerp and wonder what happened?

Last Saturday & Sunday there was friends' wedding near to Lille, France. In that part of the world the distances are ridiculously short: after one hour of driving you are already in the capital of the neighbour country and in two hours in somewhere else.

Just like that we desided to go to see Antwerp in the Sunday afternoon. We liked it and stayed a night over. Only 80 minutes drive from Antwerp there is Maastricht, which happen to be a city where lives my friends. And off we went on Monday to spend the day with them (luckyly they both didn't work before the evening). So, on Monday we had a breakfast in Belgium, lunch and dinner in Maastricht, The Netherlands and went to sleep at home in France. Crazy, I say.

More pictures will appear in the end of week.
