It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas

A crisp winter day is giving me a warm, fuzzy feeling as I walk around Bruges. This pretty medieval city takes on fairytale airs as the temperatures drop. The intoxicating scent of fresh waffles and chocolates linger in the Bruges Christmas market. The streets are dressed like gingerbread houses with festive twinkle lights reflecting everywhere. Bruges really is a magical Christmastime destination.

One day in Bruges and I am off to Ghent to meet Kaaren. Then back to Bruges tomorrow for a few days. Bruges, Brugge or Brugs.

Shuttle from hotel to train station. Arrived at train station no problem, purchase a round trip ticket to Ghent.
Get to my platform, EASY.
I love taking trains in Europe. Having been a Philly and NYC commuter for many years, I love to get back on trains.
So, my first notice that the train will be 14 minutes late.
14 minutes turned into a change of platform and trains. Still pretty easy. I have a first class ticket so
I opted for the upper level. And my car was not filled. 40 minutes to Ghent.

Ghent.
