We love Brugges and I wish we would go more often every time we go...we usually end up going to the beach in DE HAAN ( 15 km away) for half the day, so I'm always frustrated that we're not spending more time in Brugges! We've done the horse carriages ride (a pretty long wait though, in the sun, in the center of the Grand Place in Brugges...go early, at least you won't be standing in the blazing sun...that is of course, if the weather is nice!), and have yet to go for a canal cruise...Maxime is usually just happy to watch the boats go by from one of the little terraces on the canal while sipping some apple juice...
We are not too keen on the waffles they sell there ( very sweet and sticky), but we love to munch on the "dentelles de Brugges" very thin waffle cookies like the ones in "Juliette's cookies". It's a little treat after our picnic on the lawn of the church as you come out of the ZILVERPLATZ (there's a car park where we usually park our car, some quieter restaurants and great shops, and even a few structures for the kids to climb on) You exit the little shopping area through the little passage with the glass ceiling in the first photograph.
