We took the 10:58 train from Brugge to Brussels. I adverted a near disaster by realizing pretty soon after exiting the cab that I had forgotten my purse in the back. Whew, ran back to the taxi that hadn’t left yet with my stomach in my throat.
Close call
We made it back to Brussels with my crescendo plan to go to the Musical Instruments Museum. This museum houses some of the most amazing instruments and you can hear them play as you look at them.
12 minute walk from our hotel…down the hill close to Coudenberg Palace. I wanted to waste no time, so we checked into our room, dropped the luggage and John checked the directions. WHAT? They can’t be closed! We have to see for ourselves, off we go, and yes, closed again! Starting yesterday until the 17th of October.
So disappointing but not as disappointing as losing my purse would have been, so it kinda works out.
Lunch, then shopping and back to the hotel to put our feet up before supper.
