Part 2/10:
Our adventure kicked off with a late-night flight that was delayed numerous times but eventually took us to Brussels, the vibrant capital of Belgium. After an eight-hour journey, we arrived in the city, eagerly hopping on a train that whisked us to the central station. Once there, we faced the challenge of maneuvering our luggage over the city’s famous cobblestones, which only added to the excitement of our first day.
A charming discovery was a stationery store where I found delightful cards to add to my collection. However, our wanderings soon led us to the Mont des Arts garden, originally created for the 1910 Universal Exhibition. The garden offers a stunning view of Brussels and served as a perfect backdrop for our first coffee stop at a quaint café called Bouche.
