Zebra Crossings: The Challenge to Crossing the Street in Brussels

On Sunday I took Kate to the Farmer's Market in Boisfort while Rich coached Elisabeth's soccer team. A beautiful winter day. We found great barbecue ribs and barbecue chicken at the market, as well as excellent Thai food (we miss Pilin in Falls Church!).

On the way back to the car we crossed the street and Kate looked for cars, buses, scooters, and motorcycles. We crossed the tram tracks and Kate looked for trams. We crossed the bike path and Kate looked for bikes. Then we did it again for the traffic in the opposite side of the road. We crossed the tram tracks and Kate looked for trams. We crossed the street and Kate said to look for buses, cars, scooters, and motorcycles. We safely reached the other side of the road. What an adventure!
