Today we took a trip to Ghent. From the P+R Watersportbaan, you can take the bus to the city center in 15 minutes for 15 cents.
Ghent is worth seeing with its historic city center and old buildings, but it doesn't have the flair of Bruges.

This city has so much …

It started with a 4% KRIEK BOON beer (very fruity and delicious, which suited me as a non-beer drinker), then one with 6.8%, also very tasty, and to top it all off, …

Today I wanted to rediscover Ghent. I've been there years ago, but due to the very wet weather at the time, I didn't get to see much.

Ghent is a beautiful old port city in north-west Belgium in the confluence of the Leie and the Scheldt.

Ghent is a surprisingly pretty city for us with what feels like more churches/cathedrals in a small area than our adopted home of Lübeck.
