Shopping in the neighbourhood

Last weekend I have discovered the shopping possibilities around my new place. Here they are:
- HEMA, my favourite for the good quality/price rapport
- Zeeman - a textile shop with incredible low prices
- Wibra - a shop with pretty much everything at low prices - no famous brands, but resonable quality

Of course, just 5 minutes from my place is a Yves Rocher shop. All in all, I got over my worries that I have to go downtown for every little thing I need - I can buy a lot of stuff in the neighbourhood. However, no specialised shops for kids - like Premaman or Mothercare nearby - I would still have to go to Rue Neuf for those two.

Also, 5 minutes away, is the Etterbeek piscine - I have to see if I can still fit in my swimming suit and buy a swimming cap, but it looks like I might go at least one time to the swimming poll during the pregnancy! It could be a nice Valentine Day gift :-)
