Bruges, the city that froze in time

So, amidst the craziness of all these weekends where I got stuck taking care of the animals every other day (it was cool though... I got to take care of about 100 mole rats and 100 baby seahorses, 50 catfish and about 150 cichlids and off course it couldn't be simple I had to hatch brine shrimp everyday with selco supplement for the little seahorses) I manage to escape by train to Bruges. It is a beautiful city, but once again I felt like in Florence, even in the off season there are more tourists than people from town and the city as a little of a ghost feel to it, like it was frozen in time and noone lives there anymore. It does have a main street with Zara and Fnac so maybe there are people there year round, lol! I bet they all work in the cafes and the tasteless tourist shops. But the embroidery well know to Bruges is still sold among with crazy bric a brac. I was actually pretty impressed with the foliage colors I saw around Belgium and especially in Bruges! I will leave here some pictures but I posted pretty much all the pictures I took on facebook if you want to take a look, enjoy!
