27th May 2008 ageekymom	Well Done! - From: A Last Minute Trip to Luxembourg - Patton's Memorial I enjoyed reading about Patton's Memorial. I am ashamed to say that I have visited Luxembourg many times, even living in Luxembourg City for 10 months while I was in high school, and I never visited the cemetery in Hamm. The next time I visit, it will be a top priority.
2nd November 2006 Carlo from Italy	one of the italians who didn't see the sign - From: The Citadel Hi Brian it's Carlo I hope you haven't forgotten me I wanted just to say that I was very happy when I fond your blog it seems to came back in the past thx to consider our pasta (Ardennes) the best you have ever eaten
21st June 2006 Teresa	smile Brian! - From: Puffins and Seals and Seagulls, Oh My NICE TO SEE YOU - oh how I have missed my travels abroad (through you of course!) - can't wait to have you back home....a good southern cookout will be in order!!!!
13th June 2006 Dannie	Breendonk leaves you uneasy - From: Breendonk I have visited Breendonk now at least 3 times (with students and with people visiting). It left a deep impression on all of them. And even me, who heard the horror stories for a 3rd time, I could not help it that tears came up again. I usually go for a good Duvel beer to wash it away. It sure is a place you should visit if you are nearby. In Mechelen you have another Kazerne you can visit that is connected to the history of the Fort of Breendonk. I still have to visit that one. You took nice pictures. They describes very well the atmosphere there. Dannie (Irisbe)

19th May 2006 ScottyB	- From: Scotland - the Outbound Journey - Glasgow I hear ya on the guilt of not speaking the language. When I realize how all my bi-lingual European friends are speaking English just because I'm around, I feel a bit guilty. Oh well, it's good practice for them, right?

3rd April 2006 david	The tourguide - From: Gent by Night - or - Ten is Too Many Hey, I'm one of the tour guides and reading brians impressing of Ghent is both moving and funny. For me, it was a night i will not soon forget. I know 'the local' brian was talking about and the next day he told me that he had met an american who had made a good point about GB but he had forgotten the point. There is talk of a second beer related activity. Brian, hold on to your hat my friend !!!
31st March 2006 Pasley	- From: The Citadel Wicked awesome. How high up was that?
29th March 2006 Teresa	just a shout - From: The Citadel Rockin! I just wanted to say hello!
29th March 2006 Ryan	What A Night! - From: Gent by Night - or - Ten is Too Many This sounds like a great idea! The narration sounds just like you in person. It's very funny. I too wish there was a picture of you weaving your way through the street, or just falling off would be just as funny. wishing you all the best man. miss ya alot (blahblahblah).....
29th March 2006 Shannon	Hey! - From: Weekend in the Ardennes Wow! Looks like your having a blast! You have some amazing pictures! It sounds like an experience of a lifetime. Enjoy!!
28th March 2006 Teresa	Hello! - From: Weekend in the Ardennes Another great story - I am so glad you are keeping a travel journal. Note - the picture titled "Friday night" - you have spirits dancing through that picture - at least two of them I would guess! missing you! TT
28th March 2006 Steven	live here - From: A Quick Trip to Oostende I live here in Ostend, and was surprised by all the nice comments you wrote on our city. Thanks. Still a lot of other stuff to discover along our short coast. Nieuwpoort (New Port) is more beautiful than Ostend. Greets, Steven
28th March 2006 ScottyB	Excellent Story - From: Gent by Night - or - Ten is Too Many Hey Brian! That sounds like a fun pub crawl. Great narration and photos. I laughed at the image of you pondering a pile of junk "with a density approximately equal to that of a neutron star"....
28th March 2006 Ken	- From: Gent by Night - or - Ten is Too Many The name of the fourth pub is "De Dulle Griet"
27th March 2006 Peggy Keeling	A Grand Idea - From: Gent by Night - or - Ten is Too Many Hi Brian! Beck sent me your travel blog and its great....makes me think that I have to get your mom, our entertainment director, on this right away. 10 spots, 10 beers, many friends, lots of laughs, sounds like a grand night, and a grand idea! Take care and be careful driving that bike! Peggy Keeling
27th March 2006 Timmy	Fun Times - From: Gent by Night - or - Ten is Too Many Brian- Look like you had a pretty good time that night. Love the picture of you "calling it a night" at the ESN Pub. I must agree with you, the owner/proprietor of flea market explosion looks like the type of guy that would run a place like that, really interesting atmosphere. I'm a little disappointed though, I was hoping to see a picture of you trying to get on the bike, let alone riding it. Fun stuff.
27th March 2006 Teresa "T"	how fabulous... - From: Gent by Night - or - Ten is Too Many WHAT A GREAT STORY! Thanks for sharing that. Spring break was here this week...kids and I went fishing in Branson - great place on the lake. Abbi and Steve were married last Saturday - if you haven't heard from Syd already, her and Matt went - she said it was the best wedding EVER...sad I couldn't make it. Missing you!
16th March 2006 Timmy	i must agree - From: Breendonk they are very impressive pictures you took there Brian. However, I agree with you and the picture of the dog. Breendonk must have felt like such an unwelcoming experience, especially as a memorial.
14th March 2006 Teresa	great pics.. - From: Breendonk what a tremendous experience - i agree with you about the strangeness of him playing with the dog...travel safely!
13th March 2006 Teresa	Looks like fun! - From: A day in the Life Just wanted to say hey Bri...missing you here in ARkansas. Enjoyed the pics!!!! Hope all is well!!!! Farmers market starts soon - gonna miss those early morning saturdays with a hangover and some coffee!
Andrea Reed 11th March 2006 Rosetti	Language - From: In Paris (France, not Hilton) Day 4 and Day 5 Hello! I'm a 15 year old girl name Andrea and I'm going to be going to Europe this summer with my aunt. I'm very interested in Art. I found your site and absolutely loved it! I was wondering what language you spoke the most? And what was your favorite museum or if there is anything that you think I should see. I don't know a whole lot about Europe. But Paris is the first place on our list. :) Then Italy. Hope to hear from you Andrea
8th March 2006 Brian	Thanks Joe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - From: Rainy Sunday Yes, Joe, I'm aware that the name of the open area is "De Vrijdag Markt" (I live here, remember), but I was referring to the market itself, not the physical location. Depending on which day you visit De Vrijdag Markt, you may find clothes, food, pet supplies, etc.
8th March 2006 Catherine	ummm... - From: A Little Crazy that's freaky.
7th March 2006 Timmy	Dude - From: In Paris (France, not Hilton) Day 4 and Day 5 I straight up dig the museum scene. The last art museum I went to was years ago in St. Louis, MO, with Jessica Webb (Burgess). Anyway, had some nice pictures, but hardly a comparison. Glad you are enjoying yourself.
24th February 2006 Joe Davies	More info on pet market - From: Rainy Sunday Hi there, I've just returned from Ghent, Belgium myself and walked through the (Pet Market), the correct name is 'De Vrijdag Markt' which literally translates as 'The Friday Market'. You must try the Belgium chips and stoverij meat stew that they sell in the green cabin on the side of the market....bootiful!! Also a bit of history for you the statue in the middle is of Jacob van Artevelde. He is famous for introducing the textile industry into Belgium from England.
22nd February 2006 Mom	Ieper - From: On My Own Would like to go there, see the WWI stuff and eat some of those oysters and drink wine - how far from Brussels??
21st February 2006 a stalker	- From: Rainy Sunday Just ride the boat you big Wus. Scared of a little cold.
21st February 2006 Mom	your home away from home - From: Where Have I Been Living? I like it - your Mom feels better - it looks comfortable and cozy - and roomy enough for visitors! And you must take me to the pet market so I can get gifts for Pyle and Sunny and Xena. Miss you
15th February 2006 Mom	Mussels in Brussels - From: Sunday in Brussels Were the mussels good??? I love oysters so maybe I'll enjoy the mussels too. Hey saw a little bit of green grass in one of the photos - -
