Final night in Antwerp
... t stay too long at de Prof. We all kind of left in waves. Some left early, some of the boys left later to finish packing, and the rest of us left shortly afterward.
It was not busy that night so when we left the bar, the bartender was nice enough to open the door for us. He said something like "until next time." I found that funny.

cheers!

Ok wait, now we wish we were ENGLISH!
... Channel from Belgium in a couple hours, holding our breathe for the 30-45 minutes underwater. By 2:00 we had checked in to our hostel in the Earls Court area of London. We were soooo excited to be in England! Just traveling to the hostel on the 'tube,' we could not help but giggle a bit at all the accents around us, talking about the weather pissin', stuff being all rubbish, and how one lady really fancied some dress... So funny. And as we walked around ...
