The snow had turned to slush and a temperature of -10C meant it wasn't going to disappear quickly. When the sun shone it was surprisingly warm though.
Today we wrapped up warm and:
- visited the Museum of the City of Brussels. It was fascinating to see maps, pictures and models showing how the city had been transformed over the centuries.
- had lunch at EXKi, a sort of fast food chain but specialising in healthier foods... we had lovely warm soup with bread. Later we had coffee in another branch.
- explored the little and grander streets. Andrew popped in to C&A to see an old familiar brand.
- visited the comic strip museum, which was about so much more than simply Tintin. It's also in a beautiful Art Nouveau building.
- after walking some more we popped back to the hotel and I was surprised to find the rugby was still on. We lost.
