Belguim Chocolate..mmmm

Another day in Brussels. After a big breakfast Belgium style...complete with cold meats, cucumber, hot chocolate, eggs, cereal etc..we walked back to the Grand Place area to see the famous Manekin Pis fountain. Nice bronze statue..a surprise, thought it would be stone. Wandered the cobbled streets tasting and buying Belgium chocolate..as you do. More photos in the square admiring the beautiful buildings and large nativity. Walked to the park where a huge ice sculpture exhibition was on. Ventured in..lots of cool life size sculptures of super heros, Asterix and Tin Tin of course. Very cool..but not too cold temp wise also. More admiring of buildings and monuments plus a delightful mature busking string trio complete with double bass playing one of my favourite classical pieces in one of the old squares. Surprises around every corner!
