Our week in Brussels
Sunday
We landed in Brussels on Sunday evening, on the 17th of March. We then went to our hostel
and shared a dinner composed of all the specialities from our respective countries.
The Spanish ham was much appreciated, as well as the Slovak korbace (traditional Slovak
cheese) and the French crêpes (very thin and sweet pancakes).
Monday
On Monday morning, we left the hostel to go on a city tour, on foot, with a guide.
We visited LaGrand Place (the big square), which is surrounded by beautiful Gothic
monuments.
We then walked through gardens in the city and saw Le Palais du Roi (The palace of the King), as well as the Jeanneke-pis and the Manneken-pis, two emblematic statues of the city.
