Antwerp by Night!They rode their bikes to show me around the first night! I was riding as a passenger on a bike for the first time and wahhh....I think I must be heavy....><" haaaa!
Finally in Belgium!
The train ride as very interesting.
The first part within Denmark was alright, then from Kolding St. had to take a night train to Koeln in Germany. to save 16Euros, I decided to go for a seat instead of a couchette........I was lucky though! a lady left after a few hours and the compartment only had this English guy and me, so we both got to lie down and actally sleep!=)
The train was delayed though, so I was worried as I have a connection train to catch.....then halfway through the night, the train hit someone ont he tracks!!! it was stuck for 2 hours!!!!!! OMG...I heard the noise and though it was just trees...then I saw all these firemen searching for things around the train............argh.
Anyways, arrived in this other station and was kicked off the train and had to take another one to Koeln. got to Koeln and was 2 hours late for my reservation, so needed to like change my reservation and all that The guy who worked there was cool and did everything. so hopped on and finally got to Brussels by midday!
Took a local train accidentially and arrived
in Antwerp late..gonna stay with this other traveller I met in Bulgaria and he came to pick me up and got to his apartment. his girlfriend was moving in so the apartment wasnt all neat and stuff, but he is into music and had this very nice drumkit and record collection!!!!! so coool. very big apartment as well!!! two floors and its CHEAP rent!!!!!...=)
Planned 4 days in Belgium, but feel like its not enough already......and didnt know if its good to stay here and bother them for too long.......maybe will look for a hostel for the last 2 days......
Anyways, they took me out tonight and had a fancy dinner, then tried like 3 local beers!!!! wahhhhhh!! they all taste different and the are GOOOOOOD!!!!!!! Bram knows a lot about beers and I learnt so much about the different types of beers!!! They have different glasses and different ways of pouring different beeers!!! such an art. I did get pretty sleepy drunk so after uploading all those pix....time for bed=)
