the scheldt / l'escaut in tournai
the river scheldt / l'escaut runs diagonally, from south to north, through our country. the river springs in france and enters belgium, near the walloon city of tournai.

a river and its banks often proofs to be a place to dream away by.

i. and me live our own little dream, along the river bank,

restaurant giverny - quai du marché au poisson
as we encounter giverny from the bridge over l'escaut,

and decide, on the spot, we will come back here, in almost giverny. 

antwerp - groenplaats
well, since this summer is just not ending, we've made the best of the past few days and dreamed away some more, inside --

oude graanmarkt hen
and out, -- under an adamant blue sky.

and since the river scheldt ends up being the recurrent stream in our adventures, bell and i hop off at antwerp.

living another little dream, that of carefree wandering, not feeling like we are having a care in the world, actually...  there really is more antwerp for you, so you can build on your own little dream.. ♥

  5. Oh, thanks for taking me along your dream flow! A river is what I really miss in Aachen, it's beautiful, but water is the essence of a city if there is some. We have hot springs, but this is absolutely not the same.
    And yes, Antwerpen is wonderful, already been there twice!

  7. LOVE the first river photo, and then the stone hen against that blue blue sky, and the couple by the river, just framed by those trees, with those funny, colorful doorknobs/seats in the foreground. (what ARE those?)

    and how strange is the weather that YOU are having summer and i have my heat turned on?
