Monday - bonus day in Antwerp

We were supposed to be getting up early today for our flight home, but it was canceled. So instead, we had a relaxed breakfast and a very relaxed day.

The four of us walked all over town.  Some places were loaded with people. Some streets were empty except for us.  There is a lot of action here - my goodness you could window shop (or actually shop) 'till you drop - and the stores have such nice stuff.  I'm not a big shopper, but the window displays catch even my eye.  There are nice kids shops too.  We have exactly zero room in our luggage, so we just shopped with our eyes.

Our day included the normal stuff: waffels, a great playground (Sara loved playing on the ropes and wooden play things), lunch, and dinner.  It was probably our most low key day of the whole trip, since it felt like time just handed to us - so we used it to breathe a bit.

Sara has asked if we are going home soon.  She knew that we had only "2 sleeps" here, so she is wondering why it is now "3 sleeps."  We told her there was a big storm in the US.  "Why was there a big storm?" was her response.   She is ready to head home, but is going with the flow.  :)

Time to head to sleep.  Good night.
