Middlekerke, Bruges and the Dali Museum

We stayed at Middelkerke, right on the beach. The beach is amazing...it goes on forever. Miles collected lots of interesting rocks and arranged them nicely on the bedside table. 







There were several good play areas on the beach... it was a really nice experience to go on the swings, facing the sea. 


We saw migrating birds. 



Leftover pizza breakfast!


In Bruges... we visited a beautiful and spectacular church. We particularly liked the stained glass windows. 



There were some eerie sculptures, with kids it's not possible to read all the information in peace so I wasn't able to find out why there were lots of human skulls everywhere but it was notable and kind of cool! Spooky! 



When in Bruges.... eat chocolate and waffles! and coffee for me! It was very good coffee! Miles was pretty pleased with his strawberry waffle and Caden loved the chocolate stirrer for his hot chocolate. 


 Lots of mad running about in a square, letting off steam in the sun! Also they knocked open a hose pipe... which Mum had to chase around and get soaked, connecting back together as the water was still flowing! They had lots and lots of fun! 

The sweets and chocolate, they were allowed to choose a piece of chocolate each. 


Caden chose a 'tool'. We walked around more markets and squares and found the Dali museum. I've been before but it was a first for the kids. 




Errr... OK Dali... ;) 



Had to add Caden's faces behind my back. 


Miles thought that the odd drawings were funny! 


Caden was pretty taken with some of them, he can spot an obvious Dali now. 


More chocolate. 


Riverboats, tourists and chocolate. 





The car was pretty stuffed with things from England to take back to France!!
