To continue our yearly tradition we went to Ter Helme again this year. The weather was reasonable, not too hot but still warm enough to go to the beach 2 times. On the Monday we went for a bike ride to Sint Idesbald. It had been a while since we went that way. On our…

Some time ago we were in Mechelen to watch a Onze Natuur in cinema Lumiere with friends and we were looking for a place to eat afterwards. We ended up in Batteliek. It is located a bit out of the city centre next to the canal. We walked along the water from the center which…

Sunday we went for dinner at Maison Belge to celebrate a couple of May birthdays. We’ve been there a few times before and so far it was always a success. The kids opted out this time in favour of a home made pizza + Netflix movie evening. It saved us the worry that the dinner…
