I arrived in Belgium in the early morning and met up with Mindy at the airport. It was so nice to see her!
We rode the bus and a tram back to her apartment in Etterbeek, I took a short nap, and then we walked to her school so she could hand in an assignment that was due that day.
Mindy had booked a night at the Marriott in downtown Brussels so I could get a great night's sleep, so we headed downtown soon after she handed in her assignment. But first we stopped at Parc du Cinquantenaire to see its arch (and to buy a Belgian waffle).
Soon after riding the metro downtown, we checked into the Marriott for the night, ordered room service, relaxed in the sauna, and got some awesome sleep in the king-sized bed.
