The first stage was from Ghent to Aalst, no problems there.

For the next stage I had to change in the small town of Asse.

The bus got to Asse and terminated at the depot gates. To continue to Brussels, I had to get the bus from the main road outside which was due in 5 minutes.

Anyway I go to the stop on the main road outside. Stood waiting and I started to sense something was amiss. All the traffic heading past me was heading in a northernly direction and I wanted to go south. Then I realised I was stood on the wrong side of the road thinking I was still in the UK. Fortunatley I didn't miss the bus.

Done that many a time in Amsterdam, Berlin, Prague etc when waiting for a tram - even to the point where I am looking in the wrong direction, never mind standing on the wrong side of the road.
