Bats In The Belfry

Mrs D and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary in Brugge today.

I just had a moment to take this pic of the famous belfry before the heavens opened, there was a full-on thunderstorm of Hollywood standard and the hailstorm from Hell hit the city. Horses pulling the tour carriages were rearing with fright in the Markt and people scattered in all directions, desperately seeking shelter. I can only hope whatever bats there might be in the belfry managed to get into the eaves before the deluge hit them.

We took cover in a nearby friterij, which just goes to show how much I know how to show a girl a good time. Mind you, the chips were utterly delicious.

Heigh, ho - it always happens to us . . .
