Bruges 2002

October 2002

Stephen and Zena put a great deal of effort into organising a wonderful trip to Bruges where the choir sang.

Paul Ives excelled himself with camera-work and our thanks go to him for providing the lovely memories and captions below .... WARNING: there are a lot of pictures downloading (38), but it's worth the wait!  I've reduced them so that they shouldn't take too long!
