Brussels

Brussels was.. nice. Much better than the sprouts it produces. There's not much to describe it. Belgian waffles were pretty tasty (esp. with Nutella). My only complaint is that we stayed in a nice hotel that was wayyyy too expensive. Oh, and my friend lost her phone AND my other friend lost his nice camera (so many friends, so little electronics).  The city itself was pretty. It's in that classic "european style of city" that I can now recognize. There is one place there where I would've liked to have spent more time: it was called the musical instruments museum. It had tons of musical instruments (who would've guessed??) and a nice cafe on the 10th floor that overlooked the whole city. Beautiful. We decided public transpo while in Belgium would be too crazy, so we wasted a bit of money on cabs. Oh well.

I got my voice back towards the end of Brussels, and since they speak french there as well, I was very happy about this. So much french on this trip, somebody tell Mesdames!

Here's a picture from the top of the cafe.
