... one for 50 Euro, so I was a little suspicious of this price. So I decided to go to the other mattress place...across town. Got on a couple different buses and eventually made it there. These mattresses were the same price, and big slabs of foam with a covering. I felt a little uncertain about spending 100 euro on a big foam slab, so when the lady was talking to some other customers I slipped out. Soooo back to the first store. The salesguy ...
Aachen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany jrsours... use my fingers to eat wings, but other than that, very delicious.
Tomorrow I have to:
1. get up and go get my apartment looked at by the rental agency to make sure of the apartment's condition so they can ensure that the room is returned in the same condition
2. go to the electric company and sign up so I can have power at my new place
3. go to the bank and finalize my damage ...
... They told us we were at the highest point in Belgium, which was somewhere in the Nature Park.
We decided to call it a day for the roadbook, and make a detour to just get into Luxembourg for fuel, and to make sure we 'did' all the countries.
Looking back that detour cost us some time, but did mean we visited Luxembourg, even if it was too dark to see it.
... time. That means that some people were eating while other people were done. It was weird, because they knew we were coming and we even had our food pre-ordered, so they knew what dishes to make. I guess it was because we were such a large group, about 80 people.
After lunch we took a walking tour of the city. They split our large group into three smaller groups to make it more managable. The city is ...
... bread that I brought. The bus ride this morning was OK. I was too tired to get out my computer and write my blog, but hopefully I will get used to waking up early and be more functional in the mornings. The bus is also kind of crowded; there are kids getting on and off going to school. The students ride the public transportation here; they don’t have separate school buses.
So far I have seen a 5th grade and a ...
... is awesome!!
On Saturday I went to the Aachen city center and checked out the courthouse (Rathaus) and cathedral (Dom) in a little more detail. You had to pay 2 Euros or something to take a tour of the Rathaus, and I had to go look at an apartment in a couple hours, so I decided to save that tour for a later day. I did go inside the Dom and check it out, and it was very beautiful. However, I didn't get any pictures ...
... more than a few times a year, so he anticipates the festival even a bit more than the rest of us. From there I drove about 90 minutes north for a further visit with other church members living just south of Liège (or Luik in Flemish). Belgium has two main language zones: Wallonia where a dialect of French is spoken, and Flanders, where a dialect of Dutch is spoken (there is also a small percentage of Belgians ...
Liège, Belgium joelmeeker... a girl from The Pas here, so we are back in the exchange days looking at photos... it's good to be with people I actually know. I actually talked to one of my teachers that I had in canada on the phone today... it totally tripped her out that I was in belgium!! Anyways this is a pretty long entry so I better get going now... next country on the list is Luxembourg (if I ever leave belge !!! I might die here, death by too many waffles he he he)
Liège, Belgium chibsWe 'trundled down past Maastricht towards Germany. The deviations were big ones but we still were able to make good time! The scenery was worth the deviations though. We past by some wonderful little towns and river gorges. Very nice bit of countryside. Will have to return there sometime, God willing!
... terrine and salad. Second course was meat: duck, pate, game meat, Moroccan cous-cous, creamy sausage pasta and vegetables. Third course was a massive chocolate cake! And all this was accompanied by a raspberry cocktail (freshly crushed raspberries with champagne and vodka), wine, beer and champers... I feel full just thinking about it all! In between eating, it was wonderful to catch up with my Liegois friends. It was so great to spend ...
