Sorry for the delay in posts-I’m home now, so the travel time made posting challenging!

Palais Royal de Bruxelles

Last week the summer program did a day in Brussels, Belgium. I started my day by visiting the Comic Book Museum.

The museum itself is a really cool Art Deco building
Bet you didn’t know the Smurfs were created in Belgium! In French they are Les Schtroumpfs
Tintin-one of the most popular comics in France and Belgium

Also on Brussels there is a lot of comic book inspired street art

Then it looked like it might rain again, so I made my way to the Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert, which is a covered shopping area. Inside are a lot of art galleries and other expensive shops, but fun for window shopping!

A waffle and latte I had in the covered passageway

Then it was off to find the 3 “famous” Brussels statues… 😂

Everybody’s peeing in Brussels LOL

And of course it wouldn’t be a trip to Brussels without some frites!

I also got this chicken stick thing, which was basically just a chicken nugget in stick form

And we ended the day by all meeting in Grand-Place.
