Brussels was slightly dissapointing, but only slightly. We wasted way too much time to see only a couple of things - the Grand Place, Main Square, lined with amazing facades of the guild buildings, tiny Pissing Boy statue, surrounded by flocks of screaming kids for some reason and the hulking mass of Atomium, the giant model of an atom built for an international expo. Belgian waffles and chocolate are great as well as the Brussel's trams, which look like futuristic spaceships crossed with moon caterpillars.

Dim, why did you post pics from Brussels here and not on f/b?
Well, you've seen the main things... And didn't you think Brussels is a unique little place? :) The architecture is very original I think, looks like a mixture of Dutch, French & German...
>tiny Pissing Boy statue, surrounded by flocks of screaming kids for some reason
I guess, they saw one of their own %))
