With the Christmas and New Year period, Brussels has a new main attraction: Electrical nights!
We went all the way to Brussels to see the open air show and try to absorb and understand the attraction force of the show.
We stood there together will all locals and tourists from all over the world and for hours looked at the lights orchestrated together with pop and classical music. The effect was amazing and hurt warming in the night's cold.
Few minutes into the show and we created a new mission: we have to bring them to Amsterdam for a show!

The island of Bali offers a vacation experience like no other. Glorious beaches, lush rainforests, luxurious villas, and a fascinating native culture make this island a true paradise for visitors.
Bali is an Indonesian island on the western end of the Lesser Sunda Islands. Its capital is the city of Denpasar in the south. Visitors tend to flock to Kuta, Sanur, and Jimbaran, all southern coastal towns, but the central town of Ubud and other parts of Bali are equally compelling. Gleaming white and black sand beaches ring the island's shores, lapped gently by the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean. Rich coral reefs surround the island and allow for superb snorkeling and diving. The island rises in mountains toward its interior, and bursts with tropical flowers and trees. Bali's rainforests are home to hundreds of species of rare birds as well as monkeys, bats, wild cats, and other creatures.
