all gone

Having had a wonderful time in Belgium of all places, Mr McMuffin and I were looking forward to looking through the fantastic pictures and film we shot. We had some completely gorgeous ones of Babycake in foreign lands, looking massively cute as usual and I couldn't wait to pore through them again. It seems that our camera was lost or swiped in Brussels and so were our pictures. I am so sad.

holidays

We have been off on our holidays for the last few days. It isn't much of a holiday, more a few days away. We decided to head off to Bruges, The Venice of The North, according to the town's tourist machinery. It is a truly beautiful place. For those of you who do not know, it has been declared a world heritage something or other. It is a mediaeval town which has suffered very little damage or change over the centuries. However, today we went to Gent, another mediaeval town in Belgium. It is a very different place. It was lucky enough to be part of the industrialistation of the country and as such has developed a slightly more eclectic way. It is beautiful and vibrant and it bustles and hustles. I loved it, and so did Mrs McMuffin. Oh, by the way, the whole place closes down on 15 August for some sort of public holiday, even so, it we had a lovely day. I'll post some pictures of Bruges later, but for now here is a photo of Gent that I took on my phone camera.
