more churches, and one madonna


more travel inside Belgium this weekend. Brugges (again, three spellings - Bruges, Brugge) is near, but not ON the North Sea. and very very old. and more churches. we saw one of the few pieces from Michelangelo (Buonarroti - yes, we do know his last name!) in the cathedral there. most are in Italy. this time we did NOT climb to the top (even though there were a couple hundred less stairs). the Madonna and Child was sculpted in 1505. that's really old!
