Belgium

May 10th

Today Wim and Jen took us to Belgium. I think that maybe I expected it to be like that episode of the Simpsons where Homer visited the land of chocolate when the German's took over the nuclear power planet. But no, it looked like a typical European village. People speak mostly French here, which was surprising because we thought they spoke Dutch here. We stopped by a cafe to have a drink and the menus were in Dutch and French, but no English...so we had to just guess. Hamburger was the only thing we could really read so we got hamburgers. To me they were like Morning Star Veggie Burgers and it made me think of how glad I am that we will be home soon...Although....I am not sure they have Morning Star Veggie Burgers in Australia.

We did get some chocolate, but from a gas station...good enough for me, it was super yummy. I figured, you have to have some sort of chocolate when you are in Belgium.
