Since she was diagnosed with terminal cancer in August 2012, it was been very up and down, and, despite planning many trips, they've inevitably ended in cancellation just before the off. However, on this occasion, we made it, and despite having to change rooms three times due to issues in the Radisson Blu hotel in Brussels, enjoyed the break, and got to see Brussels, Bruges, and Ghent.

Even today I got a call to say that one of my school classmates died on Saturday from cancer. He and Geraldine were attending the same treatment sessions at Vincent's Hospital, so it was difficult.

Here's 60 of them, starting here http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DouglasBray/Belgium+Apr16/B4.jpg.html and working to the right. Any with the label Fuji are taken with the X100S and the unmarked ones are iPhone 5S.
