Today we got Kristy moved out of her apartment and celebrated with
some frites. Let the real party begin now that she doesn't have to
worry about Buster and Simon anymore. We checked into our hotel
downtown and walked around Grand Plaza.
The second picture captures everything Brussels. The waffles are
great. My favorite is plain. The statue is called Mannekin Pis and has
been here since the early 1600s. On holidays the city dresses him in a
costume. I don't know what today's holiday was but it was the first
time Kristy saw him dressed up and she's been here lots.
The macaroons in the third picture are too good for any description.
Simply amazing. And expensive.
The caged statue is Jannekin Pis. The locals hate it (for obvious
reasons). She was put in place because some feminists thought there
should be equality between statues of peeing kids. Bad idea on their
part.
Finally came the foot rub. Kristy and I have talked about it for days
and tonight it finally happened. I traded her a back rub and now I'm
hoping I can talk her into this trade more often. Church tomorrow.
Good night!
