Magnifique fin de semaine à Bruxelles et Brugges avec des amis de l'école... on a eu un bon rabais avec des billets de dernière minute en autobus...on s'est rendus de Utrecht à Bruxelles en 2h30 et de Bruxelles à Brugges en une heure... On a tellement mangé qu'on aurait pu revenir à la maison en ROULANT! Chocolat (souvent on pouvait y gouter gratuitement!) Moules & Frites, Biere, Gauffres....mmm.... [View Full Entry]

Fry stands everywhere!
So my travel companion last week, Prashant really likes pommes (French fries). So today I'm in Bruges, Bg and the pommes are legendary. They have stands all over. Traditionally they eat them with mayonaise. Now I like mayo as much as the next guy, but on fries :-) Belgian Fries [View Full Entry]

Sign created by waiter and waitress at the restaurant
Ok so last night I was drinking that big beer (see previous blog pics) and enjoying some mussels. While talking on the cell with Allan Jr. I made a comment about Brussels being dirty, but what I said was Belgium was dirty! So the waiter and waitress played a dirty trick on me. Later I went to the bathroom and when I returned I found my BIG beer replaced with a little one!!! Everyone thought it was very funny. I apologised profusely for the comment, good to know I'm keeping the ignorant american stereotype alive and well :-) Also they made [View Full Entry]

Inter City Express train
So now I'm heading to Bruges, Belgium (http://www.brugge.be/internet/en/index.htm) pronounced (broozh) from Cologne via Brussels. Chatted with an Iranian lady on the train. She was returning from a trip to Iran to see her family. She lives in Antwerp, Belgium. She told about here cousin which lives in Iraq. She said her cousin is very grateful to the US for giving Iraqees an opportunity for freedom. She cried while telling the story, it was very moving. Never prouder to be an american!!! You don't hear that on the news.... Sorry I was rushing and didn't get a picture of her. Oh yeah [View Full Entry]

The famous nightlife area in Dublin
Wow...where have the days gone? It's been a while since I last wrote. I guess I'll begin back in Dublin which was about two weeks ago. Dublin was the perfect ending to my month in Ireland. Conor and I spent a few days walking around the city which included the Guinness Storehouse tour! Not only did we get a good feel for the city, but we also got a good sampling of some hostels. Since we arrived on a thursday, we had to change hostels both friday and saturday night because our original hostel was all booked up. But come sunday [View Full Entry]

beach at Hastings. Looks just like Brighton
Bonjour Its been two months since we last blogged and lucky for all of you guys I have pretty much forgotten most of what has gone on over that period so hopefully this will be a short one. However there are 133 pictures there so I'm sure I can use them to jog my memory somewhat. The first lot of pictures are of our day trip to Hastings and Battle. Hastings is a little seaside holiday town on the coast about an hour and a half southeast of London. Its similar to Brighton in a lot of ways but didn't have [View Full Entry]

Somewhere Between Pisa and Munich
Somewhere Between Pisa and Munich
Our beds for the night. Josh has already settled in.
Ahh, once again I am stuck with a foreign keyboard that I can't switch to English, so I apologize for any spelling/grammar errors and lack of detail, I may not be very patient with it. As I mentioned in my last entry, Josh and I went to Pisa from Rome. Pisa was not my favorite - the town was very touristy, mostly uninteresting to us besides from the tower and nearby churches, and for the first time in Europe I thought the town seemed dirty. I was told that a lot of big cities were dirty, but never really had that [View Full Entry]
