About a month ago, we were in Brussels. The city is known as the "capital" of the European Union, and of course the City of Brussels is the capital of Belgium. Translation: a lot of government and business goes on in this modern city. Although I have more pictures that more accurately describe the history and culture of the area, these statues grabbed my attention. The inner part of the city has had so much money poured into the modern clean architecture that the whimsical figures almost seem out of place. We never found out about these statues; who created them or why, but they still found a place in our photo album. It's almost as if the two women featured here have been sitting in the city for centuries and are looking up amazed at what all has changed over the years.
