Ghent


On Monday we went to Ghent and took a great boatride through the city. We also had a great lunch filled with lots of new foods.


Views from the boat

The top picture is of Bob and his parents waiting for the boat to set sail. The last picture is of the oldest Guild House in Ghent. If it looks like it is leaning forward, you are right. It is! Ghent is a beautiful city. It is quit a large town with plenty of history, a university and lots of industry. It is the location of the factory where Bob works the most when he isn't traveling to other countries.
