Ok, so this is going to be a picture blog post about Brugges and Dunkerque.
 |
Buildings in the city center |
 |
Everyone's out and about on a Saturday |
 |
Really cool looking door I noticed while we were walking around. The carvings were the cool part of the door. |
 |
Brugges is supposed to be the Venice of Belgium. |
 |
Neat part of a building we saw
|
 |
This could be a postcard picture. |
Hope you enjoyed Brugges! Onto Dunkerque!
Dunkerque is going to require a little explanation. We arrived there just in time for the Carnaval celebrations. It's basically a Mardi Gras celebration except using a different name. Now I've never been to Mardi Gras in New Orleans, but something tells me the celebrations here outdo what goes on in New Orleans. Just see for yourself....
 |
We did just that as well. I'm pretty sure whoever created the definition of "chaos" and "mad house" definitely had this in mind. It was CRAZY! |
 |
Everyone dresses up for Carnaval... |
 |
Men dress like women and vice versa, and then there are just some really ridiculous looking costumes. |
 |
So there is a parade for Carnaval, and after the parade all the spectators link arms and follow behind the parade.... |
 |

No costumes? No problem! Throw some face paint on and you fit right in!
