Bruges Episode 2: Canal boat ride

Like I mentioned in Episode 1, we went on a canal boat ride. This post will be all about that.

Just behind Burg square was a departure point to take a boat ride along the canals.

We're off!
(We didn't get on the first boat after queueing up, but we were the first in line to get into the second)

buildings on the canalside

There was actually a dog sleeping in that open window...but I missed catching it on camera :/ The dog is probably there quite often, because the guide mentioned it.

ducks (and that's a nice door too :P )

This is just after going under the bridge from which I took this photo (from Bruges Episode 1, linked at the beginning of the post), recognise the buildings?

This is where we did a U-turn at the end of the canal.

some building beside the canal

flea market (we went there later)

another place to take boat rides

that's a curiosity shop (this photo was taken later, from the other side of the canal)

buildings under renovation (again!)
This is the Church of our Lady, which houses Michaelangelo's Madonna. Unfortunately we only had a partial guide of Bruges (lousy hostel gave us a lousy guide) so we didn't know it at that time.

I don't know what this is

lots of ducks and swans here

some doorway

The boat took us back to where we left from. Where we went after that will be for the next episode!
