Brugge, Belgium - day 4

Given that today is our last night in Brugge, we decided to visit the diamond museum and Tintin shop.
I have to say, they do have beautiful diamonds here though I manage to resist the temptation!
We stopped by at another tea room and ordered what appeared to be Brugge's best hot chocolate. It was nice, probably comparable to Koko Black.
We spent the day trawling the shops to make sure that we have covered every corner, then packed our luggages. The Thalys train from Brugge to Paris leaves at 6.25am.
Goodbye Brugge, my travel summary of Brugge, the GOOD: town is beautiful, the canals are full of character. The Flemish food is also beautiful, rather sweet than salty also more expensive than Italy. The chocolates and beer, well what can I say, except that if you are chocolate addict or beer enthusiast, you must visit Brugge. Belgium produces over 1300 types of beer. The bed and breakfast we stayed in was lovely, beautiful cooked breakfast every morning, large bedroom, we were trully spoilt. The Bad: not sure if I can think of any, except for the canal smells that kind of linger. The Ugly: definitely none.
For that, I give Brugge 5 out of 5 shooting stars!
