I'm going to Amsterdam, Brussels, and Brogues at the end of this month. Do I need a sweater ?


Travel Info
I'm wondering what kind of clothes I should bring to Netherlands and Belgium at this time of the year. According to the weather forecast, it will be around High 66掳F Low 57掳F. And any information about good places to see & eat & shop there will be appreciated. Thank you !

Travel Tips
I am living in Belgium now, I would advise a very light cardigan or a blazer, the weather has been about mid sixties, yet during the day a few days have been humid.
I think just a very light sweater or a sweatshirt should be fine at night...I think though if you want to be extra safe..you wont need a jacket, a sweater should do. enjoy your stay !
Of course be sure to keep checking weather forecasts for any drastic changes.
Its very rainy in belgium now so bring a small umbrella if you can fit one =)
Others
you will need something to wear at night... it will be very chilly.
Take a sweater, it can be cool in the evenings. In Belgium make sure to try the Moules (mussels). The chocolates are wonderful!
You may need a sweater for the evenings as Amsterdam especially can get breezy.

As for what to eat, see and shop - just a few ideas,

Amsterdam
See : Rijksmuseum, Anne Frankhuis, Oude Kerk
Shop : Bloemenmarkt for flowers
Eat : Claes Claesz in Egelantiersstraat

Brussels
See : Musees Royaux des Beaux-Arts, The Grand Place
Shop : Anywhere around the Grand Place
Eat : 'T Kelderke on the Grand Place

Bruges
See : The Belfort, The Stadhuis
Shop & Eat : Anywhere within the medieval walls

Have a good trip !
always bring a sweater, you better off bringing it and not having to use it than not bring it and freeze your bunns off when it gets chilli out, at this moment we've been having some strange weather, rain, hummid but at times a bit chilli so i would bring it, better safe than sorry girl

enjoy your trip
Unfortunately, our weather is such that you may need jeans and a sweater all year round... even July & August. Last year July happened to be very hot but then August was rainy and cold and I don't think I wore shorts or t-shirts again after the 1st of August. But it can be warm too; bring shorts & tank tops as well... hope you aren't backpacking but that's how our climate is! No way to tell but a few days in advance, at most.
sweather or light summer jacket will help you (also a jacket with hut for rain)
