If you are in Brussels on May 20, Fete du Port de Bruxelles 2012 will offer a day of free water themed festivities.
From visits to boats anchored nearby to short river cruises and demos on how not to rock the boat and a taste of what comes from the sea on the food side, it sounds enticing.
Let your mind wander for a few minutes, listen to the waves on Event website.
