Bye Bye Brugge... Hello London!
... a huge thank you to them both for being such gracious hosts, and for Jaey for inviting me there both times and being so kind and generous.
Alas, it was time for me to catch my train to Brussels then to London. The train ride was uneventful, and actually the eurostar is incredibly efficient. Once I arrived in London at Kings Cross, I met with Jamie/JC (I think I have mentioned him using both his name and nickname) and off we went during rush hour traffic on the tube and the commuter ...
Running errands- like a normal/real person :)
... kids on a school trip. Every street we walked down we saw young English kids on a trip. I wish I could have gone to another country when I was a young kid with my school, European kids are so lucky!
Once Djuna got back from school her and I went back into the village to shop and she showed me some of her favourite places to hangout.

We could also see the entrances to the underground ...
Road trippin, driving to London!
So they have this tunnel that leads you from France to England. They drive on the right in France and on the left in England. I had to see how this whole thing works. Turns out there is a train that you drive on, park the car, and let the train shuttle you under the English Channel to the other side. Pretty cool, quite claustrophobic! But on the way we found Brugge, Belgium. This was a nice town to grab a bite to eat. Check it ...
