Belgium and Luxembourg- Fail

Today, we attempted to stop in Belgium and Luxembourg. We drove to St. Vith, Belgium in search of a good Belgian waffle. Again, because it is Sunday most places are closed. So we ended up at a bakery. We both got Belgian waffles. I have to say I was very disappointed. The waffle was not what I was expecting at all- it was cold!



Moms nemesis- the roundabout
After our waffles, we were in search of some good chocolate. There was no chocolate shop to be found in St. Vith, so we headed to the next town, Vielsalm. We walked around for probably a half hour and found nothing. We stopped at a littler bakery in a desperate attempt to find chocolate and found some very gross chocolate. Not worth $0.45!
Our gross chocolate.
Well, Belgium was a complete fail. We headed to Luxembourg in hopes of better luck. Anita (mom's landlord) told us to go to Vianden, Luxembourg. Little did we know, there was a festival going on today so it was crazy busy. people were parked miles away and we drove right through the festival and kept right on going. It looked like a cute little town with a fun festival but, we were not about to park 2 miles away!

So we headed back to base. We ended up going to Taco Bell on base for dinner. It has never tasted so good.

Then we came back to our room and hung out for a little bit. Then mom decided she wanted to go see the Berncastle for a little bit, but as soon as we left base it started to rain. We hoped it would stop when we got there, but no such luck. Sad, we headed back home. On the bright side, we stopped at a McDonalds Mcaffe- they have really good stuff here cakes, cookies etc- and both got a piece of cake. And that us as exciting as our day got. Everything we tried to do went terribly wrong! Hopefully, our luck turns around tomorrow, we have a train to catch!


Lots of windmills here!
