After spending a few hours in Amiens, we set off for Belgium.  We are going to be staying in Bruges close to the old town to reduce our travel time and to maximize our time in the city.  Our fist impression of Belgium is very positive.  It appears that most highways in Belgium are lit at night, the road surface on the other hand is rather rough, you seriously can’t drive and talk it is so loud.  Bruges on the other hand looks like it was just built and painted yesterday.  Everything looks fresh and clean and pristine.  Beautiful.
