Brussels: The Capital of Europe

Today we officially started our 1 month tour of Europe with our first stop being Brussels. We left early this morning and we were welcomed at the Brussels train station by Nora, a good friend of Pattys, who, along with her boyfriend Christian, is letting us stay at their place for a couple of nights. Not only that, but they have been so kind as to make us lunch and take us out site seeing all day! They are incredible! We had a great day, and we hope its a sign of how great our trip is going to be. We saw pretty much all there is to see in Brussels today as we walked around the city center for 5 hours. Eating Belgian chocolates, ice cream, Belgian Frites, and Belgian waffles made the walk a little more bearable. Here our some pictures of our day!
