We landed in Brussels on April 22. Today is May 6. We are halfway through our trip and wishing we’d planned for a longer time.
The map below shows how far we’ve come..said cheekily because if you hopped in your car in Brussels and drove to Delft, it would only be 4ish hours. And if you drove a straight line without a detour to Ghent, you’d be there in 2-1/2 hours (assuming no traffic). By train, 2 hours and 6 minutes and that includes changing trains in Rotterdam.
Brussels (including a 1/2 day in Mechelen) to Ghent (with a day trip to Bruges) to Antwerp to Delft. And if you drove a straight line without a detour to Ghent, you’d be there in 2-1/2 hours (assuming no traffic). By train, 2 hours and 6 minutes and that includes changing trains in Rotterdam.
Anyway…once we leave Delft (on Sunday the 10th), we will head to Rotterdam for a couple of days then back to Belgium to stay in Liege for a few days (with a day trip to Cologne while in that neighborhood). Finally back to Brussels and heading home.
