... which also showed nothing, and blood and urine tests which showed a small infection somewhere. I then had to drink special fluid, which I spent 2 hours drinking only to promptly vomit it back up, in order to have contrast dye put through my stomach and another CT scan. When this showed nothing, the doctors decided that maybe I had a lung embollism from so much flying, and ordered another CT with contrast dye, this time of my lungs, as well as an ECG to make sure my heart was OK ...

During our stay in Spa we had the most scary, horrible, unpleasant experience ever in a restaurant.<br><br>The restaurant to avoid is "Le Bouchon Gourmand", the owner does not hesitate to insult customers, lock them into the restaurant if there is a dispute on the bill, and claim more money than is due. <br><br>See more on www.bouchon-gourmand.blogspot.com

... bad, but considering everything I did today, it was a long day.<br><br>Coming up the stairs I met our neighbor lady, Rosvitta. She is a talker, but very nice. She's the lady that cooked that traditional German dinner a couple weeks ago. I told her all about my day, and she was happy for me and kept telling me how my time here is just going to fly. She also said that if I ever get homesick I can always come back here to my family. That was ...

... use my fingers to eat wings, but other than that, very delicious.<br><br>Tomorrow I have to:<br><br>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<br>2. go to the electric company and sign up so I can have power at my new place<br>3. go to the bank and finalize my damage ...

After popping into and out of Germany, we were now back in Belgium. It was beginning to get a bit dark, and we still had at least 200 miles left to drive.<br><br>Gaz's motor was struggling, and threatening to overheat, so we stopped to let it cool down.<br><br>With the vehicles all decorated with stickers, we attracted a bit of attention, and a Belgian couple took our ...

Once in Elsloo, we stopped to find postcards (having completely missed the observations again), only to find that the only card shop was closed that afternoon.<br><br>Up the road a bit, and Kieran was dropping a card into the door of a Landy enthusiast they had met on the recce. The guy turned up at that moment, and so we were invited in for a refreshing cold drink. The Landyprikkers overtook us at that point, and went on their way. We then ...

I am sitting here waiting to catch the 9.34 train to Aachen, which I think is just over the border with Germany. I hope this train will take me to Köln, one way or another. Köln is the next place in the direction I'm going - the southeasterly direction. My hopes were momentarily dashed when I asked for a ticket upgrade to catch the Thalys (express train) to Köln, and after much tapping on the part of ...

... the Mannekin **** (for those of you who don't know Brussels, yes I did just write 'the peeing statue', it's rather famous over there!) bought some chocolate in a very expensive chocolatier's and bought some clothes in some slightly less expensive clothes shops! We also ran into our teachers...not exactly what we were hoping for on our day off, but ho hum, they're a friendly lot really. Sunday was time for a much needed lie in, and then we spent the ...

... vallée de la Meuse. Quelque temps plus tard nous arrivons au bord de la Meuse. La vue de toutes ces maisons collées en rangée au long du fleuve me fait penser à des villes Pays-Bas. Non loin de là nous retrouvons la rue Hors Château, rue autrefois à l'extérieur des fortifications de Liège, d'où son nom. Nous y voyons plusieurs jolies impasses qui béouches sur des jardins ou de jolies cours intérieurs. Ces impasses sont si ...

... to all that Dutch colonial imperialism in the then Dutch East Indies a few centuries ago, spotting Indonesian restuarants in the Netherlands was about as difficult as spotting druggies at a rave party. And if this particular restuarant is indicative of the others then finding a superb meal is no more difficult &#8211; even though the Dutch menu didn&#8217;t give us too many hints on exactly what we were choosing.
