Midweek Moments: Of *Casera* Chips and Crispy Cars...

Hola,

I've been a slacker this week, and didn't have enough pictures to fill the post, so I delved back a few weeks to supplement the current crop.

Most of these were taken in Antwerp on May Day, and if you don't mind me saying, Belgium is where the best chips/fries come from -- and I'm most definitely in Belgium's camp when it comes to the age-old question re. who invented French fries...


So sexy to turn a corner in my town and see an old Roller relaxing between two palm trees...

Though grumpy about flying so damn early, can't ever miss the chance to snap a sunrise :)

Yeah, I'd scarper and hide in the shade if I was you, too, Mrs. Fiat

Oh, you silly people!!

My *Hero* sign. Now I *know* Belgium beer is better/stronger than mere Alcohol :)

But why?? (At least the numbers are sequential. I miss my Spanish door numbers!)

Yuh, this ain't Walmart/Giant/Albertsons/Publix :)

I guess the owner of the 4th house from the left lost the bet...

When time passes slowly...

Calm before the storm?

Like I said, Belgium invented fries!

... and a few sauces, too :)

Here's to you, Antwerp, you supreme chip-maker you!

"You see, officer, I lost me plane, but when I saw the sign pointing me in the right direction, I knew all was well..."

So sad to turn a corner in a neighboring town and see this new car abandoned...

Hey, buddy, on the FB thing be sure to check my reply, as your settings don't allow me to send the request...


Now, on to the post at hand: I can attest Belgian beers are far better than what much of my country considers alcohol... 4th House: Who do you figure was built first?

Used to love the chip wagons in Ostend - not a beer drinker. Used to spend a lot of time in Belgium

The Belgians did invent fries! Love the photos. I've never been to Belgium. Been through it, but never stopped. Lucky you! Great photos as usual!

Thanks for taking me to another part of the world for a moment. I need some fries now. :)
