My oh my look where the time has gone

So I just got back from my Easter Break in Belgium and The Netherlands!

I will make a more exciting post describing more within the next two days...hopefully

TOP TEN EXPERIENCES WHILE ON HOLIDAY!

10. Eating Belgian chocolate and drinking Belgian beer at the same time!
9. Exploring more cities and places and learning more about culture (for instance the Belgians want to split the country in half because the people who speak French don't like to speak Flemish [Dutch] but the people who speak Flemish absolutely refuse to speak French...it is very odd)
8. Going to a bar in Brussels <== (The Flemish way to spell the city) that has 2004 beers available to purchase
7. Riding bicycles in Amsterdam and just cruising around
6. The really good conversations Amanda and I had on a bridge over a canal in Amsterdam and on a bus back to Bruxells <== The french way to spell Brussels.
5. The last night in Belgium Amanda and I stayed at a little holiday inn, it wasn't terrific but it was a great time in a really odd part of Brussels
4. Staying with our Host Adam who lives in the heart of the red light district and across the street from a live sex show theatre...he is also REALLY cool and has the greatest flat EVER!
3. Hanging out and having a good conversation with Chelsea (friend from Glasgow, who was doing a lot of the same trip as Amanda and myself).
2. Walking through the red light district and looking at the girls, it is not an exciting thing but more very sad, it was amazing to see these girls having to literally sell themselves
1. KNOWING WHAT AMANDA AND I NEED TO DO FOR THE SUMMER!
