I’m slowly hunting down and buying this man’s music, loving his sound.
Belgium drives me almost insane on occasion, for reasons that shall remain unwritten, but the musicians ... I love them.
Stash - another favourite Belgian Band
I love the music of this Flemish band too ... love it!!!
5 Years Married to the Belgian Bloke
Gert just wished me a happy 5th wedding anniversary ... we had forgotten again.
But yes, here we are, five years after the wedding I wrote the story of over here.
Het Internationaal Schutterstornooi, Belgium
Het Internationaal Schutterstornooi op de historische Grote Markt.
These guys were beautiful. They weren’t acting, they were just out there, in their archery and shooting guilds, competing.
The View from Antwerp Town Hall ...
On a good day, with a telephoto lens, this is the view from Antwerp’s town hall ... a beautiful ancient building here in the city of Antwerpen.
They say that it is clear that it was built by a city at the height of its power and wealth. It was finished in 1564 by architect Cornelis Floris de Vriendt and the interior decoration dates mostly from the 19th century, or so I am told. It was a good day.

And then I just had to photograph this man ...
I hope I have given it the right title. I can’t find anything in English, and these are new words in Nederlands, for me anyway.
