Bruges Episode 5: Covering unseen territory

The next day we took a different route to town, so that we could see different sights.

Jerusalem church. There was supposed to be a lace museum next door, but we didn't see it...maybe because there's no sign on the door??

This should be St. Anna's church

the front door

We came here on the boat the previous day. The U-turn place, remember?

See the Jan Van Eyck statue?

nice buildings

the front of the statue (the back faces the canal)

another nice building (seen from the same square)

the fries museum

yummy...okay, not really, I prefer real fries :P

Guess what? There is a National Order of the Gold Cornet for people in the potato-frying profession.

in English

They even plant potatoes upstairs ;) (that's the ceiling)

a statue outside a building

said building

We came across these fake goodies in a shop selling Christmas decorations (why Christmas? Don't ask...we went there in August)

St. Saviour’s Cathedral (Sint Salvators-Kathedraal)

Is this the front? I think the previous photo was a side door. But I'm not too sure...

In the next episode, we walk randomly and stumble upon the biggest square in Bruges. Stay tuned! (Do I sound like a commercial or what? :P )
