The big day has finally arrived - #Belgium is reopening bars and restaurants today after 6 months of them being closed, and the 10pm curfew is ending.
But they can only serve people seated outside (no more than 4 people to a table), and tables must be 1.5 metres apart.

The weather, however, is dampening enthusiasm. We've had cold & rain for weeks here in 🇧🇪 and it's not ending any time soon.
Belgians do love a beer, but I doubt we'll see scenes here of people shivering and wet weeping tears of joy into their pints today brusselstimes.com/news/belgium-a…

The 🇧🇪 reopening is possible because of the dramatic increase in vaccination pace here recently.
The government said today's reopening could happen if 70% of people over 65 were vaccinated. That milestone was reached in late April.
1/3 of the country has now been vaccinated.

As for me, I was willing to endure the cold 😉
It’s 5 o’clock somewhere!
