…where else would you find these 3 things in a shop together?
Belgium of course, specifically Brussels.
I left London early Monday morning to catch the 6am Eurostar to Brussels, the trip was great and a lot faster then I imagined. This is my first non English and I would have to say it was a little daunting, first up I got stuck on the Metro at the end of the line cause I didn’t understand the announcement. All was OK after that though as the train continued on I eventually got to the hotel.
Not a whole lot to see here in Brussels, the place is beautiful but not very big. I studied my phrase book a little last night so my French is a little better today.
Excusez-moi, Parlez-vous anglais?
That appears to be the secret here, if you can ask them politely, excuse me do you speak English? then most people will say yes or yes, a little 
I will try and work out the photo galleries soon as this computer is a little gay. Above is picture of me and a street performer near the Grand Palace.
Amsterdam tomorrow and free internet at the hostel so I should be able to write more.
