I have been in Brussels since yesterday morning, attending a two-day meeting 
hosted by OLAF, the EU Anti-Fraud Office. Obviously, my camera is with me as 
always. Four images from yesterday.

This is Place Rogier, where I am staying at the Thon hotel, and the meeting 
I am attending is at the Crowne Plaza in the background. Military vehicles 
like this are a common sight in Brussels these days:

Brussels is home to many political activists, and putting stickers on 
lampposts is a common form of expression:

But now on to something beautiful. I took the preceding picture while 
walking to Grand? Place, were the hosts of the conference had arranged 
dinner on the second floor of one of the best restaurants on the square, La 
Maison du Cygne. This was the view from our dining room:

And it only got prettier as the evening wore on:

I love this city, and I will be back here next week :-)

Cheers,
Nathan
