Busy weekend at the longest day

At the end of June just before the official "sales period" (in Belgium those are regulated: only allowed in July and January!) most cities organise a braderie. All stores put stalls in front of their doors with promotions or goodies while the streets are traffic free and some animation is present. In Leuven they see their braderie quite big and is called "De langste dag" (the longest day) which was this year quite appropriately on the 21st of June itself.

It was fun despite the blisters on my feet. Next year I'll have to wear more appropriate footwear I suppose.

Time with family and friends

De Langste Dag was truly a long day as it included beside the shopping also a haircut, house cleaning, a bbq for friends and family at home. No wonder I am so tired today.
