Kids playing tag
The cobblestones on the Grand Place and most of the streets in Brussels City
Statues are common in the squares
The Royal Library - graffiti EVERYWHERE on these beautiful old buildings.
Gardens in front of the Royal Library
The windows of the Royal Library are painted to look like stacked books.
Another view of the windows
Graffiti!
The Tram (cable car) runs the length of this street (down to the large domed building in the distance).
the Tram
The Royal Palace (business home of the King of Belgium). The flag flying on the roof indicates the King is in country.
The Place Royale.
The Royal Park across the street from the palace.
The tree branches have been encouraged to grow into a lattice shape connecting all the trees that line the length of the Park Royale.
S1 Brussels.
The workstations (4 to a station) at S1 Brussels.
The Atomium next to the stadium where we watched Belgium vs. Serbia.
Belgium v. Serbia
The Belgian fans
An injury.
The Atomium at night. It is lit from within with thousands of little lights that make each sphere look like it has stars on the inside.
A better (?) view
The smallest house in Brussels. It is literally the width of the green door plus about 2 feet on either side. It is about 3 stories tall and until quite recently, a family lived there.
Another view of the palace.
Windmill outside my hotel.
Royal Gallarie... an interior mall of sorts.
Royal Gallerie.
Crazy sculpture.
Stella Artois factory.
