They said there was nothing to do there, but we had a marvelous time exploring the centre and seeing all the beautiful architecture.Handmade in Israelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05074180274102087566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8739610091396665556.post-20019279362096138942018-04-08T07:54:24.996-07:002018-04-08T07:54:24.996-07:00I've never considered Antwerp as a place to vi...I've never considered Antwerp as a place to visit but you look like you had a great time!josiekittenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15785710144572421726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8739610091396665556.post-37723737988750738452018-04-05T08:10:57.556-07:002018-04-05T08:10:57.556-07:00So great that you enjoyed your get-away.
