More fun in Brussels



We have now visited a 700 year old castle and had a great day at a Belgium version of the science museum - but way more fun. Wild kids on their last day of school. I was so glad not to be in charge of a classroom of kids. I did intervene in one situation - should have kept my mouth shut and let the kids beat each other up - but no. I had to intervene. Once a teacher always a teacher. Even when I don't understand them. In Brussels you'll hear Dutch a lot as well as French and sometimes English. Walking in the city you hear all kinds of languages. Very international. We are staying pretty close to the EU which is interesting too. Makes me realize how much I don't know about Europe. I do know that the euro is way more than the dollar right now. About 1 dollar to 1.45 euros. My money isn't going too far.
