Today we got up in Antwerp, Belgium, and now we are all in Brussels, Belgium. It was an easy train ride to get here. (Like 45 minutes I think.) We just used our "rail pass" so the ticket was a no-brainer, you just write in where you are going to and from - no ticket machines to deal with!
Once we got here we went to the very same hotel, and very same room where we started the trip 1 month ago. Literally one month! It would be funny to see us all one month ago, and see us all today. How were we different? With the whole trip ahead of us -- versus -- having the whole trip behind us? Julia is now a whole month older - eating bits of bread and apple sause (we are giving her a break from prunes). And Sara is still a bundle of words and energy. ;)
Our day here in Brussels was relaxed. We did a ton of strolling, and had dinner at the "Grand Place" - the big square here that is lovely. Google it to see a picture.
Dan is out of the hotel room now to grab a beer, Sara is by my side, and Julia is up sleeping (we have a two level hotel room). We just talked to my Dad - good to touch base! Skype is amazing really. So it is time to get Sara back to bed now! ;)
Tomorrow is Halloween. Bummer to miss it in the US, but we found a local event that should be fun! It will be our last day here, as we are currently scheduled to go out on Thursday.
So, we are enjoying our bonus days, but ready to go home too. Hope everyone back in the US weather ed the storm OK.
Goodnight!
