Antwerpen times: Day 2

On our second day in Antwerp, we all went strutting around the back streets where appaza all the kl kids hang out... only it was raining. We did do some brill window shopping though. We then visited a market although... by the time we got there people had started to pack up. hmph. HOWEVER, all was not lost as after some lunch and rest we went to TWO MUSEUMS OMG. The first one we went to was the Musee De La Mode which had an expedition showing dresses from way back in time to the 1950s  - and the second one was the MAS which was an amazing building that resembled that of a burnt orange cube covered with test tubes. BRILL.

Shops down that cool road I was on about...





Market times...




MAS (Museum ann de Stroom)
Obvs not my own pic don't get angry pls
(My photo had something in the way, not good)



Every floor had a different theme, like the first floor was basically a storage place with creepy old toys heads and figures in cages. The whole room was dark as well so it felt as though thousands of beady little eyes were watching me that I didn't know about. There was one floor as well were the first room had loads of TVs all in a circle and they were playing political speeches/wars (etc...) over and over again whilst at the same time this BOOM noise would go off rhythmically. DEEP STUFF MAN. Another floor was full of old religious paintings, yet, at the end of that part, there was just this...


...which made me bloody jump when I saw it! Freaked me RIGHT out.

So that pretty much sums up our second, v.eventful day

SAY BYE TO BERNARD!!
