After three pleasant days in Amsterdam, we drove back to Antwerp, a city we'd never visited before. The traffic jams were gone, and we found our way easily to the municipal camper stop at Antwerp Expo, about a 10 minute bus ride to the historic district. Antwerp has some great museums which were our primary goals. But first some pix of this beautiful city from our various walks...

In the main square, the cathedral tower above, from the next
big square over |
 |
| Another beautiful old city square |
 |
| As elsewhere in this part of the world, guild houses... |
 |
| Ditto |
 |
| Beautiful city |
 |
| Famous fountain |
 |
Attempted artsy-fartsy shot of guild house and cathedral
tower; atop the guild house is a sailing ship, emblematic,
for me, anyway, of Antwerp's historic (and contemporary)
importance as one of the world's great ports |
 |
Antwerp's cathedral; in another post, we'll
go inside, mostly for the art |
 |
Judgment typanum over the main west door; nice Jaws of Hell
on the right side |
