| Brussels and the Royal Greenhouses |
| Having driven to the Netherlands for a 3 day sales training "adventure" I felt like I needed a little R&R on the way home. My co-salespeople had decided to head to Amsterdam for the weekend, but wanting to keep from breaking my head wide open I headed home via Brussels instead. I had heard that the very spectacular Royal Greenhouses were open that weekend and I wanted to take a look. The weekend got a bit more complicated than that, although I did get to the greenhouses on Sunday against all odds. |

| The Centre of Brussels was this gorgeous old town square. A bit like Prague....but smaller. |

| There were acres and acres of greenhouses, this being one of the most spectacular. |

| Another spectacular greenhouse. I can tell you are all enthralled by this. |

| This is what it was like inside the greenhouses. The flowers were unbelievable. |

| So on Sunday I went and saw the Greenhouses. What did I do on Saturday? On Saturday I went into Brussels central (hence the above photos of town square and catherdrals). Then in the evening as I was having a few quiet beers in an Irish pub, I was swept up in a stag night totally by accident. I wasn't allowed to take too many photos (as the girls didn't feel they were looking their best), but you do get some idea of the state they were in. |
