Hi all.
I am blogging from Brussels right now... as unamazing as that might sound. It is a nice but cold place - of course it had to snow the moment I got here! To let you know, Britt is safe and sound back in Rome. She's still a nanny. One interesting development about Britt: she is interested in going to cooking school when returning to Canada!
As for me, I cannot really say why I decided to come to Belgium... I thought it would be neat to eat a real Bruxelles waffle (they don't call it a "Belgian waffle" here apparently...?), see the peeing boy (like most other people I was pretty unimpressed by its size... and I mean the boy, not certain parts of it) and also see if the country is really going to split apart (which it isn't apparently). So now I'm sitting in Benoits' (x2) apartment, trying to interpret a french conversation between Benoit #1 and Pietro - his Italian friend. haha, C'est la vie!
I will write a more complete update before I leave to go back to Rome - check back Monday for more!

Hi
ReplyDeleteGlad that you went to seeing the peeing boy - was worried that you might want to adopt his pose as a photo op. Jim Newton mentioned that there is a heritage site in Brussels as well - has to do with a WWII site that was bombed and left as a memorial. Heard that there were some heavy duty snowstorms in France. Stay warm.
