Belgian Sex Candy And Other Out-Takes

House with a hat, Ghent



















The Lamb of God bistro in Ghent--rack of lamb
...their specialty




















Automatic coin-op cafeteria in Veurne...when I 
walked by an hour later it was empty




















Vodka automatic and hand grenade...Russian vodka I presume;
in Veurne
















Everybody bronzes baby shoes...but pacifiers?!




















Shoe line in Ghent; when is this going to become an Olympic
sport?
















The Birds and the Bees, Volume II: Bees















I love Monkey Puzzle trees; here's a female, bearing fruit, sort
of; Bruges
















McDonald's in Bruges; seriously; their gratuite
et illimite wifi in Belgium is known as Wi-Fries




















Probably because they can't compete with vlaamse frites
no one can; a Friteur in Bruges















In a window over-looking the Beginhof in Bruges















Vermeer would have been so proud















More than 29 flavors for the hot chocolate machine















In addition to the Bruges Madonna, the St. Mary Church in
Bruges offered the most deeply religious fun I've had since
returning to Europe; above, everybody does a Last Supper...
















But Pieter Pourbus shows you the serving staff
as well as the diners




















Queen of Heaven "satisfied customer" files















Thus















Plus the best Annunciation sculpture yet...



















Note this is a cut-away Mary, showing the
Child already rotated, at full-term...wasn't
the Annunciation suppose to occur a little
earlier than this? What was she thinking? "Oh,
well that certainly explains all this weight I've
gained!"























Starting them off young, at a beer garden in Bruges















You expect this sort of thing in Amsterdam or Florence, where
American college students congregate, but not in stately Bruges,
where their parents are...
