I had bought a new DSLR for this trip but had not used it until our visit to Bruges, opting instead for my lighter pocket camera. The Canon EOS Rebel SL1 is definitely big, heavier, and more clumsy to carry, after using it for a day I kept the pocket camera in my pocket most of the time from then on.

In addition to the horse drawn carriages, we also had to dodge cars, bicycles, scooters, and huge throngs of tourists.
