Sept. 16
We took a night bus to come to Brussels, Belgium. It was loud and packed therefore we did not get any sleep and we were exhausted when we got here in the morning. We also got lost for almost 3 hours when we got into the city so we were q little tired and grouchy We did end up going to the market place. The buildings were spectacular. we seen the town hall (it was a huge tower) and many beautiful palace like buildings made in the 1600s.
Sept: 17
Belgium's main food is chocolate and waffles so I definitely got my fill. The chocolate is so good here, the waffles are too, but very very sweat and filling. I am sure I have gained 20 pounds in the last 2 days. That is all I ate was chocolate. We met some American girls here, and they showed us where to get free chocolate samples. We seen the little boy peeing which is there national mascot here. There is some kind of legend about him peeing on a fire. There was actually a big ceremony going on around him and they were filling cups with his pee (which was actually some kind of cider.)
So these damn computers won't allow me to get pictures off of them and Dustin is the only one who has the right adapter and he is leaving tomorrow therefore I will most likely not have any pictures of Germany or Belgium.
Sept: 18
We got up bright and early this morning to take Dustin to the airport. He's a little worried about flying back by himself. He has to go through Chicago Airport. We fly to Greece and basically have spent all day in the airport. We arrived in Athens, Greece quite late.

I'm not dead
Well i survived 3 US security points just to get out of Brussels to Chicago and then found the wrong terminal with ease in Chicago and then barely made my flight, running my ass off to the right terminal, having a piss and sending a text message on my cell. But the flights were actually super fast, they were all right, but now i am at work, hitting the coffee hard, and catching up with life here again. I cant wait to get my pics done up and send out, and cant wait to hear from you both. I just want to also send out the thanks you two deserve, this was the best thing i have done in my life, and the greatest experience i have done. And i cant wait to do it again, even though there were those bad days....the goods ones out weight them easily. Have fun, and hear from you two soon. Peace bitches.
