Well, I dont have much time to write and even if I did I couldnt because this keyboard is all backwards and it makes typing go verryy slowwlllyy. Brussels has been great. After much ado, we finally found our Servas host. Servas is an organization that Karissa and I joined that allows you to stay with local people for free on two conditions: you have to be open minded and kind hearted. (I would have used hyphens there if I could find them.) Our first Servas hosts were a young couple named Selma and Baptiste. They were great...they showed us where to go, things to see, took us out for drinks, and most importantly, gave us a place to sleep. They truly hrlped make our stay.
Brussels is a really cool city with great architecture and a surprising amount of culture. There are Turkish, French, Flemmish, and of course Belgians all in one city block. Today Karissa and I explored the city and went to an art museum exhibiting the artistic works of several famous ,usicians. It was an interesting show including Pete Doherteys drawings made from his own blood. The castles and statues and churches are magnificent and my pictures dont do them justice but peruse away.
