Enjoying spring break in the winter...

This week is spring break here in Belgium. In Swedish it’s called sport break and in Dutch it’s crocus break.

I took 2 days off work to spend some extra time with the boys. On Sunday we went to the market in Brussels but there was no sign of spring: the fruit was still expensive and it was too cold to enjoy the ethnic food. Then yesterday it snowed all day so we went to the swimming pool.

I think perhaps the Swedes were right this year: this week has neither spring nor crocus; just sport.
