Exploring Inside the Castle




Today we went back into Gent to explore inside Gravensteen Castle. But not before we had to go find a hankerchief for Vincent to wear in his coat pocket for the wedding. After tramping around Gent for an hour looking for this elusive hankerchief and smelling perfumes, my legs were starting to drag as I am so not use to all this walking and we still hadn't done the castle yet!

Vincent works for the tourist bureau in Gent and they gave him a gift for me and Vanessa a free pass each to visit the places around Gent for free. We saved 8 Euro's alone on the entry fee for the castle. I took a million pics inside the castle and here is the link. Inside Gravensteen Castle.

We finally got home around 3.30 pm after me buying a sim card for Europe and purchasing a 10 day pass for the local bus as well. I adore Gent and Belgium. The city is so pretty itself. I am getting use to not hearing english being spoken all the time and I reckon when I go home I won't be use to being able to read all the signs in english and everyone will be drriving on the wrong side of the road!!
