Brugge, Belgium: April 2006

A video and photo compilation of my visit to Brugge, Belgium in April 2006. I stopped in Brugge for two days in April 2006, after flying into Brussels. Brugge was a point of departure for me to drive to Schoondijke, a small town across he Dutch border, where my grandfather was born. I would have loved to have spent more time in Brugge, as while I was there, I was mostly fighting jetlag. Brugge has so many small, winding passages and alleyways that each turn brought you to another set of paths to explore.
