A few more things from Belgium

1. Waiters take your orders for drinks and food separately.
2. Brussels is very large and my feet hurt a lot.
3. Met the woman who is renting her harp to me during this trip and who I met in Vancouver last October – she has a really cool performance space in her apartment and an awesome electric ramp for getting harps up the stairs! Also apparently her husband/partner/friend (I didn’t ask) is a famous Belgian glassmaker. Cool.
4. We went to the Musical Instrument Museum and there were ocarinas there the size of a large cat! Huge!
5. Saw above and below ground palaces.
6. Waffles are consistently delicious.
7. Went to Bruges, very beautiful city. Much more green space, open area, and water than Mons or Brussels. If I had to pick a place in Belgium to live, I would pick Bruges.
8. Made friends :)

Sorry, I would post more but I spent all day yesterday and today in Brussels and Bruges and I’m real tired.
