Brussels Mini-Europe
September 21, 2006
We took two buses and a train to get to Brussels and visit Mini Europe. It was also recommended for kids and I thought it a good opportunity to get some kid-sized 3-D models and info on many of the sights we will be seeing in person. Just another fun way to prepare for the trip. It is in need of a bit of renovating, but it certainly served our purposes well. Mozart had a blast running from one thing to the next. There were 300 models of famous European sites, built on a one quarter scale. Setting off Mount Vesuvius, cheering on a bullfight, finding the leaning tower of Pisa, the Acropolis, Arc de Triumph and her beloved Eiffel tower were her favorite parts.

That is so cool. The kids would love it and learn. I have to take them there, too!
