Woke, bunny hugging animal lover. Love travelling, history, art, reading and all things to do with wildlife. Miss being an EU citizen. No time for far right populists spouting their crap. I can be very sweary.

Melon Musk has been stirring it calling for a change of government here. WTF!!! Interfering with another country that he has never been a citizen of. I thought Y-L was banned from coming over to the UK and that he had recently been done for assault ๐คทโโ๏ธ

@ginny65.bsky.social I am just so bloody angry. What on earth has become of us. The anger and hatred is heart breaking. When did we stop being civilised? The waste of resources is disgraceful.

Nope 'cos I'm 65 my ticket from Brussels Airport to Bruges was 15 euros and was a same day return (if I wanted to use it). It's a 90 minute train journey.
Georgina Mason (@georginam2.bsky.social) reply parent
I hope you feel chipper again soon A.
Georgina Mason (@georginam2.bsky.social) reply parent
Yes exactly. We flew from T5 @ Heathrow to Brussles. Both airports were shite IMO. I prefer the smaller regional places or train travel. If we lived further east I would take the train every single time. Also train travel from here is so expensive๐ซ
Georgina Mason (@georginam2.bsky.social) reply parent
Afternoon A. I hope all is well.
Georgina Mason (@georginam2.bsky.social) reply parent
No we're not anymore. Tbh I really hate the whole airport experience. Long gone are the days when I could sit on a plane for 10-12 hours. Also the whole set up at airports is just blurgh!!!

I'm not a seaside resort fan (too bloody old). Old, historic cities are my favourite thing. Thankfully Europe is chocca with them.

We managed Krakow a few years back over Christmas. Really enjoyed it. We've been lucky in that we've managed to get to quite a few places but the list just grows and grows. Wrocลaw is also a great place and less touristy than Krakow.
Georgina Mason (@georginam2.bsky.social) reply parent
It's really lovely but really busy. Budapest is also lovely. I haven't been to Rome. Is your list getting longer instead of shorter? Mine is!!

I guess they could be tourists from warmer places. We thought about going to Gent as well but we only had 2 full days. maybe next time. Did you get a chance to have a look at the windmills on the eastern edge? I think there are 4 of them. It was a pleasant walk along the main canal circling the town
Georgina Mason (@georginam2.bsky.social) reply parent
The temperature was perfect for us. 18-20c, a bit windy though. We loved it there. Yes that is your hotel. We were drinking in T'Kleine Venetie.

Yes that's how we get our dog fix. Salisbury to Liverpool ๐คis definitely a long stretch. He's a funny character, hates people, grumpy, smelly but needs constant attention.
