We were 7 to sketch in the museum of instruments in Brussels In the picture from left to right:
 Julie, Marie- Pierre, Chris, Corinne et Miriam.



Chris and I started our sketching day quit late because there were no trains from Mechelen to  Brussels because of a gas leak. So we arrived  an hour and half late.

Quick sketch of Marc and his neighbour on the train back
Marc and Chris (and me!!) had a fine day!

During the evening we are deciding what we are going to do the next day...
"A garden where you can buy seral seeds..."
"There's enough seed waiting for me at home!!!"

The house we stayed wasn't quite finished... the kitchen was also the bathroom with a futuristic showercabin...
