Brussells, Belgium
8:46 PM
Hi
For my first weekend in Germany (excluding the one I flew in on), I tagged along with three of my colleagues that I'm working on the project with and headed to Brussels in Belgium. Two big nights were had tasting every beer Belgium produces (often multiple times) and if memory serves me, and it doesn't, there were tequila shots at some point. Brussels is a town with a lot of historic architecture with lots of traditionally styled buildings and cobblestone roads. Perhaps one of the most famous pieces to visit in Brussels is Mannekin Pis. Yep, a statue of a little boy, well, answering the call to nature...continuously. I'm not going to make a joke about how I was expecting something bigger...
Of course, when one goes to Belgium, you must also sample the fine belgium chocolate and the delicious waffles. I think if I were to live in Belgium i'd get very fat indeed. Great beer, great chocolate and great waffles. What more can you really ask for? Let me answer that. Great weather. Sunday was freezing with it snowing all day and blowing a country gale too. Made it freezing and wet to walk around in.
Anyway, one country down, Prague awaits next weekend. As usual, photos uploaded so have a looksie!
Auf Weidersehen!
