First Weekend in Belgium

First Weekend in Belgium

Our first weekend in Belgium was a LONG one.  We landed on a Thursday, there was a national holiday on Friday (therefore stores are closed),  and stores are closed on Sundays.  This means we had to do shopping for immediate supplies when we landed on Thursday; figure out where we were and how the house operated on Friday; and shop for all the stuff we forgot on Saturday.  Then, get Ryan ready for work on Monday.  Phew!  It was a whirlwind to say the least.  We all struggled with jet lag and it was a little rough.   Here are some pictures to document our crazy weekend.

Rylee's slug collection

In an attempt to show the girls where their school is located (we got lost), we stumbled upon
a little festival.  There was a beer garden, and music.  The girls LOVED listening to the
the music and watching the dancers.  




The girls' slug hotel.  YUCK!
Another slug hotel.  A slug has got to have options...
