Guests are coming to town!

The good thing about living in Brussels is that it is a place where sooner or later everybody has some business to do, meetings to attend, people to meet. And for us its a chance to meet friends and relatives cause to Belgium they come over more often than to Lithuania or Greece. So far we had visitors from Budapest, Barcelona and Kiev. 





We have even developed our small city tour which is a must for everyone coming to visit us. 
Not mentioning the usual turistic do's such as Belgian waffles, frites and photo with a pissing boy, we go to flea market, non turistic parts in the south of the center, Matonge, Leopold park...







A few weeks ago Miki made a pizza a la Jamie Oliver which was outrageously good that we thought we've found a special dish to please our guests. So, with a great enthusiasm when Miki's brother was visiting us, we made pizzas of almost a kilo of flour, which we then ate for almost 4 days! :-) From now on there are changes on guests menu, but the lucky ones can still qualify for the most delicious pizza ever!
Weekend walks in Sablon area where you can find a huge flea market are always interesting and curious. One can find there not only antique items but also all kind of weirdos. By the way, today we came up with the conclusion that the flea market is the place to see real Belgians coming to shop :-)
Today when walking around with Max, we met a bunch of wasted French students having late breakfast in a cafe after a sleepless partying night in Brussels. 
And an old lady, cooking the mussels soup in the street - her little kiosk looked a bit shabby, but the woman was very friendly. She told us the mussels are coming from the North Sea and showed us how to take them out of their shell with a pin. She also didn't mind being photographed... cause she didn't really realise we were filming her all the time with 2 cameras.
We bought a royally dressed doll and a stool for a flower pot.
 









 
We also like the guests who like funny experiments with camera ;-)
