Visited Brussels....

...and am glad to be back in London. I am not yet sure if Brussels was a good place or not, though that's certainly too subjective of a choice. Every place I visit has been good in one way or another. One of the high points was visiting the Museum of Fine Arts, where I found non-modern art that I could understand. Saw some paintings that I actually recognized, which surprised me. There were Breughels/Breugels Older and Younger, and I do not remember which one I remember--I'm not very smart in the arts of fine arts.

Learned that I need to learn much more French if I am ever to visit anyplace close to France: I sheepishly voiced my ignorance of anything not English, which was humiliating.
