Let the RV Camper adventures begin! The first city that we visited in this beast was Antwerp.
Amazingly, we found a parking spot, although at the time we didn’t realize how amazing that would be until later on in our journey. We parked the beast, and set out towards the city centre for some sight seeing.
Now, to my downfall, I didn’t do much any research into what the city had to offer in terms of sights and attractions. But no matter, we were content to just meander and browse the streets as we came across them. We probably missed a lot of cool things, but we also weren’t exactly looking for them.
After a quick Google, here are some of the things that we missed, but I wouldn’t mind seeing in Antwerp:
Museums
Fashion Museum (MoMu)
Diamond Museum
Architecture
Attractions
Ruien Antwerp Underworld
Palace on the Meir
After a lovely day in Antwerp, we headed towards Brussels, and stayed at a campsite just outside of the city centre. We did plan on going into Brussels, but after terrible instructions to get to the train station by the guy who ran the campground, we finally found it. But, due to the camper’s large size, we couldn’t find any parking! We drove around the Atomium Museum thing for way to long before deciding to cut our losses and continue onwards and upwards.
It was a pretty interesting day… to say the least. Lovely fall colours, and we just kind of stumbled upon the Atomium. Who knew? In retrospect, we probably should have just gone inside and up in the weird little atoms that I think are rooms.
