Back to Dusseldorf



I can't get enough of the old architecture in European countries. I believe this building belongs to the church as it was in a couryard where the church sits.












This is the outside of the church building. The crucifix scene was quite spectacular to look at. It was large in size and intricately carved. The scene is on the outside of the church facing the street.






































Daniel and myself enjoying some the ice cream parlour on a rainy day. Can you believe how busy it is? It was always this busy regardless of the weather. Germans love their ice cream.












There's our desserts. Yummmm. I can't believe my brother only ordered a small bowl of chocolate ice cream.











Daniel peeking over his Daddy's shoulder. Look at those eyes, LOL!














Another great family photo. I love the look on Daniels face.











It's bath time!

Liege, Belgium


We visited Belgium for the day just before I came home to Canada. The town we visited seemed as if they were going through some economic problems as there were many poorly maintained buildings that at one time were quite beautiful.















Here we are studying a menu trying to decide if we wanted to eat this old restaurant that was built in the 1700's.











The grey building straight ahead is the restaurant building that was built in the 1700's.













This is a parliment building in Liege. I decided to go off on my own while everyone else sat down for dinner. I came across this massive building and then went inside. I don't think I was supposed to go inside but nobody noticed or seemed to question me.











This was an interesting building I came across when walking around looking for a place to eat. The building appears to be very old. It also appears to be in better condition in the picture than it did in real life.













I love this picture. I took this on our way back to the car before we headed home. It was a beautiful night.
