[Leica] Nathan's PAD 13/6/2017: morning walk in Brussels

[Nathan Wajsman]

On Tuesday morning, I got up at 6 to take a long walk around the inner ring before I had to be at my meeting at 8:30.
It was a lovely day, and for once I was not staying in the EU quarter but in a hotel next to the Rogier metro station. So I explored the area just north of the centre.

Those who know Lucky Luke will appreciate the delightful irony of this mural:

I walked towards Place Sainte-Catherina, a lovely square that has been among my favourites since I lived in Brussels in the 1990s:

A city full of the world’s best beer needs good public toilets:

A bit of nostalgia; I used to take my son to this restaurant for traditional Belgian food such as stoemp when he was 8 or 9 years old:

And I have always loved this little statue just outside the restaurant in the preceding picture:

Did I ever mention that I love Brussels?

Cheers,
Nathan
