Relaxing Day

---

My day started with a Hot Air Balloon going over our home away from home , you can check out the photo. Right before our breakfast prepared by Dad we lost our electricity. After some texting with the home owner "the company" turned the power back on and we were off for our day. I am savoring the hot showers this week before we get to Congo on Monday!

We stayed in Bruges today and enjoyed a canal ride this morning. I truly felt like the official tourist as I ducked going under the lower canals! The town was alive with activity today as the weekend officially begins! Mom and I did some shopping and then had a "mother/daughter" lunch on the square and watched all the action. We met up with Dad and Charlie and stopped off for an ice cream cone. Charlie and I experienced the local Food Lion as we decided to eat in tonight and ate out on our lovely back patio. You'll see our healthy dinner in the photos! It's now already 11 pm so time for some sweet dreams!

Tomorrow we'll be taking the train to Brussels !

In honor of my husband!
It was a bit bitter for my taste, but I knew Bruce would have enjoyed it!

I got to sit next to the driver :)
He complained to me of the other boat tailing him! Some things never change.

Dad and his new friends
On the canal boat !

Historic !
Can you find a picture of a famous thinker?

Date with Mom
She had "Lemon- ADE" Mom put the emphasis on the end. The waitress said, "Sprite or Fanta?" Mom says "Lemon-ADE." It was too funny. Picture was taken by Mom's new friends from the UK. Did I mention that Mom likes to make new friends at every stop??

Field trip
I was so impressed by the straight line!

Dinner on the patio
Charlie was the official chef and I was his assistant !
