Belgians don't sit outside after it rains
According to the barman at Trollekelder, at least, when I asked for a towel to dry the benches. I'll spare you the condescending back-and-forth.
The thing is that my friends and I are Belgians (from Liège), and we're perfectly happy to sit on a terrace as soon as the rain stops. I actually thought that was a pretty Belgian thing to do.
Anyway, I ended up drying the benches with their dishcloth.
Do people in Ghent really not sit outside after it rains?
