Bois de la Cambre - Terkamerenbos Brussels







I guess it must happen to you to..? I live so close to this absolutely gorgeous park that I rarely think of taking pictures or blogging about it.
Even so, today I decided I want all of you to know about this wonderful park in Brussels which has something for every age and taste: ... ducks to watch or feed, boats to row, ice skating, a ferry to cross over to restaurant "Chalet Robinson" on the island. Even the Police take out the horses for a stroll in the park. As I do not know the latest rule about photographing the public forces, I took a quick and blurry photo.
True, as is said in the observations in the link below, our park is not Central Park or Hyde Park but it is the preferred spot of many a Brussels inhabitant.

Walking on water



At the Embarcadero in Brussels' Bois de la Cambre, a man in uniform navigates a wooden ferry to bring  customers to the other side of the lake where they can enjoy drinks and dinner at Chalet Robinson.
I thought his picture would look pretty cool on This is Belgium and started chatting with him,  hoping he would approve being photographed as he did.
Suddenly,  two people showed up carrying big white letters J and C.   They had come to illustrate,  in a as literal way as possible,  the Biblical story of Jesus walking on water.
