We spent our first evening in the Hotel Gent, a temporary hotel roombuilt around the railway station clock. This clock was in the centre of our room!




Bells at the Belfry. While we were here we had the opportunity to play the carillon and make music for the whole of Ghent.

The shoes over the electric wire have always been there (actually there used to be many more but the police made the fire brigade remove them a while ago), so those aren't part of TRACK :-) Although I've been living in Ghent for 6 years now, I still don't know the story behind them, but I keep searching!
I loved reading your posts about Ghent, they really show the city as it is and as I love it :-)

Aw, thanks. I'm glad you enjoy them :)
We were told the trainers were part of TRACK but it's interesting to know they've been there a while. There's a rumour in the UK that if there are trainers hanging from the wires, a drug dealer lives in the house below them. I have no idea how true this is though!
