Chocolate and Waffles

So our last day was in Brussels, Belgium. We accomplished the top three things…eat waffles, eat chocolate, and see Manekin Pis. The Manekin Pis statue was hilarious and we were shocked that it is such a big deal. This statue even has its own wardrobe. We walked through Grand Place, which is quite amazing and then had more waffles. HA HA

Yesterday we took the Euro Star to London for one last night. Our flight was at 11:15 a.m. and were looking forward to getting home, but not looking forward to the 9.5 hour flight to Houston.

Tulips Tulips Tulips

We boarded a bus this morning and rode about one hour west of Amsterdam to see the tulip fields. On the ride there, we began to see the rows of color. Our destination was a park in Keukenhof, Holland. Tulips are my favorite flower, so you can imagine that I was foaming at the mouth as soon as we entered this garden. Tulips were everywhere, in every shape and color. This park had tulips of all varieties, in many different arrangements and patterns. The pictures below do not do it justice. The tour was three hours of seeing heaven for me and photo heaven for Brad. It was a welcomed change to the day we had before.

Afterwards we were off to the station, platform 13a, to board a train to Brussels, Belgium. Brussels is the last stop for us on our vacation. We cannot believe it has already been two weeks and we will be home in two days.
