Sarah says: We had to bring my brother to Brussels to meet up with his wife who had been at a conference in Namur and we took them into the very touristic center of the city to see the famous Mannekin Pis (and the lesser known Jeanneke Pis), to eat the famous mussels from Brussels and to feast on the amazing Liege Belgian waffles! We all felt totally disgusting after our eating fest! We stuffed ourselves silly and acted only as tourists do. We ate at Chez Lion in the Rue des Bouchers area- outside on one of the touristy-terraces. It was great! We had a lovely time and my brother and my sister-in-law got to see the amazing Brussels Grand Place, which is one of the nicest squares in the world I'm sure. Now they are off to Greece and will return here at the beginning of July. It was good to have them here and we look forward to seeing them again soon so we can do some more very touristy things!
Oh - by the way, I decided to introduce Marv to my brother and my sister-in-law. My husband was too busy with the elections to come along so Marv came instead. He ate like a big pig (as you can see in photo above with his waffle containing ice-cream, chocolate sauce, bananas, strawberries and whip cream I think!) - but then again, so did we all! He and my brother hit it off so all was good.
