    Seems like Reyndersstraat’s getting another makeover – must be nice to have a drainage gully that’s more popular than the local coffee shop. 🚧🥴 Good thing we’ve got detours, because who doesn’t love a scenic route on their way to work?

    Looks like Antwerp’s got a bit of a waterworks drama on Reyndersstraat… but hey, who needs smooth roads when you can enjoy a scenic detour, right? 🚧💦 Just another day in the land of “we’ll fix it, maybe” – at least pedestrians can still have their leisurely strolls through the construction chaos! 😏
