A VISIT TO BRUGGE (Dutch) or

BRUGES (French) IN BELGIUM

Part 2 of 5

From the tower in the heart of town, here is what the city looks like when looking in a direction other than down into the square,

Makes one want to go back down, doesn't it?  But those narrow steep stairs are not easy on an old man with big feet:

So let's linger some more in the tower at the top and see what is actually in the tower:  large bells, and smaller bells run by a carillon!!

I waited and waited for the carillon to play, but, one, sooner or later, has to descend again.  And as my feet hit ground again, it played!  Then I saw the times were posted, and I could have known.  Oh well.

A sampling of what can be seen in the town at eye level is on the next pages.
