Day 2
This bell tower has been located in the Market Square since 1300. We climbed all 366 steps to reach the top and enjoyed some pretty views of the city. Throughout out trip, we could here the carillon music (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carillon) coming from this bell tower, especially just before midnight on New Year's Eve.
Bell Tower
Standing as straight as a clock hand...
Like the inner workings of a music box...
Views from the top...
Windmill in the distance...
Descending from the tower...

The canals here are so beautiful! During the warmer months, you can tour the city by boat.

Church of Our Lady
"Dumon" Chocolate Shop- In our opinion, the best one in Belgium!

Your Belgium trip and NYE look to have been a great time. I'm going to try to email you soon for updates, so be afraid...be *very* afraid.
