I am back in Brussels again, this time for meetings at the Commission 
starting in about an hour. So I had to travel here yesterday anyway, and I 
decided to take a morning flight to enjoy a Sunday in Brussels and the 
promised good weather (which turned out to be the case indeed). When I lived 
here in the 1990s, one of our Sunday rituals was to visit one of the many 
neighbourhood flea markets, to look and to photograph, sometimes even to buy 
something. The biggest and most famous of those is on a square called Place 
du Jeu de Balle in the Marolles neighbourhood in the centre, in the heart of 
an extremely multi-ethnic part of Brussels. So yesterday, after arriving at 
my hotel around noon, I quickly jumped on the metro and headed to Place du 
Jeu de Balle, for the first time since I lived here. It was a sunny day, and 
it was, to put it mildly, a picture-rich environment. Here are five images.

Much more to come when I get back to Alicante and properly edit the many 
pictures.

Cheers,
