Euro Trip: Observations on The Journey So Far
- Arrived at the Amsterdam airport but promptly got in a car for a trip to Belgium. Was sitting in a cafe in Nivelles, outside Brussels, where nothing, NOTHING was in English. Except of course, for the song over the radio, "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz.

- Other songs heard in Belgium: Hanson's "Mmmm Bop" in French.

- Waterloo was pretty cool. Nothing's there but a huge mound built in memory of a Dutch dude who got injured in the battle. I almost got injured climbing the gazillion steps to the top of the manmade hill. 

-The dogs are ugly here. Seriously. Some really unfortunate mixed breeds.

-I learned at dinner the other night that the Dutch don't know what it means to "go Dutch". I guess I won't be making that joke now that I'm back in Holland.

-Needed to go to the ladies room today and wandered into a coffee shop... yeah, wrong kind of coffee shop.
