Musée de l'Ecole de Nancy, Art Nouveau

Yesterday we visited a museum (house) of Art Nouveau, it was beautiful as were the furnishings and decorations.

Nancy, the park and playground

Yesterday we went to Nancy, first we had a picnic then we played in the playground.

flowers

Normally I don't get too excited by plants, but these ones I planted from tiny seeds with Alex. 

 

 

And they haven't died yet! Normally I'm a plant killer...

Atomium, Brussels (expo 1958) - Friday 6th May

love this one!

I's far more impressive from the ground, inside it's very ordinary. It's a 'rip-off' to go in, 11 euros an adult (lucky the kids were free)... just like the petrol in Belgium... the other day we paid 1.68 euros a litre... compared to today in Luxembourg... 1.36 euros a litre... we filled our baby right up!
