Brussels again
Entry 35 of 38 | show all | print this entry |
I spend a fiew days in bruxels at the Vangoh youth hostel (really cheap and prety nice). on the 31st I visit Brugge, a breathtaking town DEFINATELY worth going to, with Kiara a nice Italian I met the night before.
On the first I walk around with Zoe and Will, 2 americans and we go to the Atomium. Word of advice, take the tram there, look at it and leave. Do NOT go in it, total waste of money, you can only go in 4 of the spheres and it is ridiculous. The first sphere has a plaque of why the atomium was built (the 1958 expo to boost the economy), the second one has a clip of the atomium being built, the third one has barbie dolls dressed in suits that people wore in 1958(at this point I am swearing and wondering why the heck I paid 6 euros for this) and last but not least, the fourth bubble has an ice cream bar... wow, what a dissapointment and furthermore, what a waste. That night we spend 20 euros collectively to buy food and end up feeding 12 people with it, what a feast, I have a 1L Jupiler for 1.7$ and after we go buy ourselves an other beer or two (the fact taht they were Bush's doesint help) and then Will and I split a 2L bottle of wine playing drinking chess and some other game that I invented that shal remain nameless. We then proceded to convincing everyone we talked to that we had just finished filming a reality tv show called "Lord of the fly" but that we were still on network contract and that we only got paid after the show had aired so we had to keep quiet. I made sure to keep people hooked by throwing in random comments such as "will, if you dont want to wake up with a scropion in your sleeping bag again, cut it out!". hehe... what a night.
