Dolce la Hulpe Brussels

... wind dies down, honestly! We have six hours to wait in Heathrow, where we will buy stuff that's either cheaper or more familiar than stuff in Brussels, we will eat something (farewell weight watchers, knew my trousers wouldn't be baggy for long..), probably take the mickey out of English travellers in their football shirts and sit in the lounge and write on the blog.<br><br>Very excited about going to Thailand!!

We arrived in Brussels and got ourselves to our hotel and dumped our bags so we could start our day in the city and see the 5th biggest Cathedral in the world! Haha. And whatever else Brussels had to offer us, not to mention the food, chips, chocolate, waffles and beer!! We had a great day walking about and being amazed with how much Belgium loved us. Haha. Then after our day was done, we headed back to the hotel, had a well deserved ...

... is. IF I could do it again: I would see zero doctors, hospitals, scans or specialist. What is the use: I am no further than I was when I arrived in Belgium. But most of all: it is my own damn fault: I did not try hard enough to contact you, I was too lazy, jumped to conclusions, ... . I got people worried, like my sweet rollerblade teacher and wish I spent more time with people who really matter to me. I hope you ...

... try 1 piece of each kind. The salad bar was a little different, again, a lot greens I have never seen or heard of, but very good ! Only no Ranch Dressing, what's up with that ! Come to think of it, I have not seen Ranch dressing this whole trip ! Lucky, my favorite dressing is Italian anyway. They also have Fountain Drinks ! Yeah, I like this place ! I even get one to go ! The one thing I like about a GPS, it will always ask you if you want to continue to your original destination ...

... for his passport and the few other things we realized we forgot in the hectic packing session. Back to the train station in record time, we decide to get something to eat and breathe a minute before going through the boarding process. Once on the train, we are doing good. It is less than two hours to get from Brussels to London and you go through the chunnel!! Very cool - www.eurostar.com

... fate that we would not be sleeping in Brussels that night. We decided to spend our full daily budget, room and entertainment, on one good night out in the city. We enjoyed the famous waffles, beer, and moules/frites...mmmmm. After all of this it was only 11pm and we needed to kill another 5 hours. We hunted down some local night-life which included a pretty cool pub (we closed it) and then went to an awful ...

Il fait toujours magnifique depuis un mois en Belgique. Encore plus beau qu'Espagne à en croire la météo d'Euronews ! Accompagnée de Yannic, ma cousine et de son... *roulement de tambour* nouveau fiancé, nous sommes allés visité le château de la Hulpe. C'est un château non loin de Bruxelles qui a appartenu à la famille Solvay de 1893 à 1968 (merci Wikipedia !). Le domaine du château est aujourd'hui ...

... walls to get these oranges. People have bags and bags full of these oranges, enough to feed their families for the next 5 years. Then there is me ducking at every opportunity to avoid these damn things. Oh and when I would get hit...that was not pretty. I don't know what it is about oranges, but I just hate them. My mom puts it down to when she was pregnant with me all she ate and drank was orange flavored things (Popsicles, creamsicles, freezes, Orange ...

... tell them alittle of my traveling plans(or lack of them) they ask if Im crazy so I say: A little.. So we all laugh. So then I try explaining in broken french where I wanna get off, but they not good in english, E' Moua Jenspa parl'e lefrances bien - so I land up in the City center. --Discovering, to my great surprise - nobody speaks English. so I sit down, pull out my guitar, calm down, take a walk in this pretty palace which is a government building now. And ...

... Heather and I went up to the band and requested some Irish songs....and for the rest of the night they kept dedicating things to the American girls in the front. We were all having a great time, but it finally got to be 11:30 and we had to leave before the last metro left. Heather and I had definitely drank more than we had said we would and would have been kicking ourselves for being so stupid as to go out the night before an exam if we hadn't had such a great time. I snuck ...
