On Sunday morning we rode our bikes out of Brugge to a small town called Damme. It was a 5km ride borderingthe surrounding farmland and absolutely picture perfect. The town itself wasn't that special. A beautiful quaint little farming villiage but it paled in comparison to the grandeour of it's neighbour, Brugge. It did however have a church tower with a spiraling stone staircase leading up to an incredible view.
Maggie had told us about the ride and also given us directions to ride the extra 13 km to the border where we could cross over into the Netherlands. It was tempting, and had we done it we would have entered four countries in one day, but we decided to enjoy Belgium and ride back to Brugge for a boat ride along the canal.

Wow! The countryside just looks so surreal to me. With nothing like that over here in Australia, I can't quite imagine how a village could stay like that for so long!
