The Peeing Boy Manneken Pis Brussels Belgium

I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THE FAMOUS PEEING BOY IN BRUSSELS until I was there and everyone seems to be crowding around to take a picture of this peeing kid.
Aaron managed to take a picture of this Manneken Pis aka The Peeing Boy...
There are a few legends arising from how this statue came about...
I googled about it a moment ago to "quench" my curiosity...
Cos every corner I went, this icon seems to be  here and there...
In front of the waffles shop....
And in the waffle shops....
Must have one for the album with the Peeing Boy!
Oh yes, talking about waffles, one must not leave Brussels without tasting them!
At first we thought it cost only 1euro...
And many to choose from..... the toppings, I mean....
Just look at the salesperson... I didn't realize it until I saw this picture...
At my sitting position, I could only EYE for the toppings!
Yes, the waffle cost 1 euro BUT without the toppings....
We ordered the famous Belgian choc and it comes to around 3 euro.....
After finishing one, we went to another shop.....
We just couldn't get enough....
Choose our toppings again....
Aaron again chose chocolate!!
Hot waffle with lots of chocolate and cream!
This one cost 5 euro if I am not mistaken....
I guess he must be having a hard time choosing what he wants... hahahaaa...
I would too, if I were to choose!
Ok, you eat first, Aaron!
Something triggered off our smiles.....
Not sure what... must be something to do with the waffle!
Yes, just look at the tourists....
There was some kind of a festive procession going on....
And We are so happy to be part of the crowd... 
We and Our Waffles!
