Brussels

After a week in Amsterdam, spending some nice quality time with an old friend in an amazing apartment was a blessing. The train from Amsterdam was uneventful and both of us caught up on some much needed sleep. After arriving at Brussels Central Station, we wandered around for an hour and waited for my friend Jenifer to get off of work. She met us in front of a McDonald's knock off (called Quick Burger....which is disgusting) and we walked to her flat. What an amazing apartment....perched on the third floor of a new apartment building.....it has beautiful tile floors and huge vaulted ceilings. Jen was an amazing host and treated us to a delicious Lebanese dinner and showed us around her area of Brussels. We all were kinda tired to we decided to take it easy on Friday night. The next morning we awoke to an amazing breakfast being prepared for us. We then rented bicycles and rode throughout the entire city....taking in all the sites including the European Union headquarters, an amazing War Museum, and the Grand Place. We enjoyed sampling various types of amazing beer and some extremely tasty fries. That night we decided to check out a techno club near her house which ended up being an absolute blast. We danced until 4 am....something that you should be allowed to do in California! The next day we enjoyed a VERY relaxing sunday. Next stop.....Cologne, Germany.
