Agree with JS, Nancy, try to stay overnite. First time there, was living/working in Holland, decided to do a weekend to Antwerp/Bruges. Took the train down, made the mistake of sleeping in Antwerp, saw the sights there (some neat stuff). Did Bruges via early AM train next day, immediately recognized my mistake not to sleep in Bruges. Only town in NL/Belg where I was tempted and did take a canal cruise; beautiful but too short. Pleasant walk to town square,etc.,from train; easy, small town to do sights on foot, no tour required. Get tired; grab a cafe table outside, have a toasty or a waffle (and maybe a libation) and people watch for an hour or so.
