Last day in Luxembourg

Last day in Luxembourg

Accommodation: Hotel Francais I had a much better sleep than on Friday night and woke up this morning a little later, at about 9am. I had breakfast at the hotel again, but was a bit more relaxed than yesterday knowing that I didn’t have to drive all over the country sightseeing today. I finished up, checked out, left my bag at the hotel and then went to explore. I got a map that showed a walking tour where you can…

Heading to Luxembourg

Heading to Luxembourg

Accommodation: Hotel Francais I got on my flight to Brussels Charleroi on time and it looked like everything should be running smoothly, but once we were fully boarded, they found an issue with the plane that meant we had to sit on the tarmac for an hour while all the paperwork got signed off. Once we finally took off the flight was a simple two hour flight and we got into Brussels at 6pm instead of 5pm. I went straight…

Last day in Brussels

Brussels, Belgium, Europe I had a really nice day with Pete and Therese today. We got up pretty late after such a late night, so I think it was around 10:30am when we finally got up. Pete went out to do some shopping and made us pancakes and bacon, and got some croissants and juice. It was the best breakfast I’ve had in a long long time. I can’t even remember the last time I had a pancake, but it…

World Cup day with Pete and Therese

Brussels, Belgium, Europe I got back around midnight last night and got on the phone with a car rental company to try to organise a car rental for the next week. I figured it would be nice to drive myself around southern France, Switzerland and Spain. Last night there was an issue with the rental car company’s system, so I had to call back this morning. It ended up being about two hours on the phone total, trying to get…

Day trip to Bruges

Day trip to Bruges

Brussels, Belgium, Europe I wasn’t surprised that one of the girls in the dorm came back last night at 3:30am, and the other one didn’t come back at all. That was pretty much what I expected. I got up early and got ready to go out for the day. I left at the same time as Thea, so we went out for breakfast and walked to the train station together. She got on her train to Hamburg and I hopped…

Leaving Holland, on to Belgium

Leaving Holland, on to Belgium

Brussels, Belgium, Europe I was really sad to be leaving Langedijk and the company of Jacquelien this morning. I was up at 7am, showered, packed and ready for leaving at 8am. Jacquelien gave me a ride to the train station and we said our “see ya laters”. I couldn’t have asked for a better hostess for the last few days and I’m really happy we met while travelling and became friends. I arrived at Amsterdam Amstel station and got my…
