Our fourth visit to Nice was our longest yet, with a full week where we split our time by staying in two different neighborhoods.

Nik and I wanted to visit Nice in December to see how the weather and crowds compared to our previous visits.

For our third visit to Nice, we stayed for one night at the famed and historic Le Negresco hotel, located on the Promenade des Anglais.

The perfect day trip from Ghent is to Bruges. It's an easy train ride and Bruges is small enough and perfect for a day.

A couple days visiting Ghent that included exploring the Christmas market, eating well and taking a day trip to Bruges.

We covered a lot of ground while visiting Antwerp, including the Christmas Markets, seeing architecture sites and more.
