Tuesday's Travels 22-02

Several of you knew the answer to this one, which was of course Manneken Pis in Brussels (or the little Weeing Boy). Points go to Fun60, Gera, Gerrit, Harm and Hilary. Half points go to Gattina and Janice for not mentioning the where. Sorry.
My story? On a holiday in Belgium and Luxembourg many moons ago, we visited Brussels and wanted to see this little statue. He is not always nude though, because as Gattina said: there is a whole museum of clothes for him and he is dressed up regularly (okay, extra quarter point to her). Unfortunately when we were there, he was wearing his birthday suit. I will have to visit the museum one day to see some of his outfits.

On to this week's challenge. Where is this? Have you ever been? Tell us your story. Answer next week.

    Dit is de "Pont du Gard". Een Romeins aquaduct in de buurt van Nîmes. Bezocht tijdens onze vakantie in 1991.

    We have no idea but know it is a very old aqueduct. That would be cute to see that little boy in some of his outfits.

    I have put together puzzles of this viaduct. It is Roman built some place in France. In searching on goggle maps I see it is near where we visited in 2017. Missed that chance. Hugs
