The Young Victoria

Always one to love a story amidst its' historical context, The Young Victoria earns its' esteemed praise as a film with convincing acting, captivating cinematography, and a well-crafted script. Victoria, the longest ruling British Monarch, ruled the empire while also leading a remarkable private life and creating a beautiful love story with Prince Albert of Germany. Five stars for the film! Hands-down, I definitely recommend it!

Day Two: Bruges in Pictures

This is where we started our canal ride. Like a postcard!

MBA on the Boat

What's a beautiful European city but with some construction? 

Every. single. place. we. visit. 

No. Kidding!

Can you just imagine this place in spring??? Beautiful!

Bruges boasts over 10 miles in canals. That's a lot of water!

A bit suspect since it's also in English?

Grand Market in Bruges

Lunching on frites with mayonnaise. I definitely recommend their homemade mayonnaise over ketchup any day!

Cathedral in Bruges

MBA stopped for a coffee

Just have to love the variety of chocolates in Belgium!

Wouldn't you love to have this as the nameplate on your front door?!?

 What would a Flemish town be without a few windmills? 

Stopped for a Waffle!

Charming. Charming. Charming. 

Can't say it enough about this preserved Medieval town! We loved it!
