MY RUSSELLS IN BRUSSELS

So my first day in Brussels went a little like this...









Beginning with a little walk around the Cathedral we managed to get a few snaps inside and out. Whilst the weather was very windy the sunshine held out, and although a little chilly I still managed a whole half a day without tights and just my favourite bunny print skirt!!!!

The Cathedral itself is a Roman Catholic church named St. Michael and St.Gudula Cathedral, in French: Cathédrale Saints-Michel-et-Gudule and in Dutch: Sint-Michiels- en Sint-Goedelekathedraal. It is situated at the Treurenberg Hill in the heart of Brussles and is a true treasure to behold. I am not a practising Catholic or Methodist myself (I have been christened a methodist but most of my family are Catholic) however I have an adoring respect for Religion and the peace and reassurance it can bring people. Seeing such a beautiful building in the flesh; purpose built for the worship of a higher being, left me with somewhat of a benevolent feeling so I felt it apt to light a candle for my sadly missed Mother and Father.

After wandering the grounds and the streets and shops surrounding the Cathedral me and my boyfriend Luke had worked up a small appetite, so as the excellent tourists we are we stopped for a good old Belgian waffle....yum yum!!
