It's so stormy outside that it is impossible to visit something more interesting so before I was blown away I took these pictures while I was shopping in Waterloo and Braine.
the City hall
little shopping streets
The main church where wounded soldiers were brought in during the Waterloo battle
An English shop, with only English products
The little neighbor town Braine l'Alleud
and the old city hall
with these old doors (the main entrance had been modernized)
and if you want to try all sorts of tea this is the place !
Facinating photos of a place I've never seen! I really enjoyed looking at your neighborhood.
