Hello to all, this time from fabulous Belgium!
Yes, I know, this wasn't on the itinerary. However, plans change, especially when the French want to charge us ridiculous prices to hole up to relax for a few days in a winery, and so the breakneck pace of sightseeing must go on!
And although it's perhaps not technically first on the days and days of things I haven't got around to telling you, it's perhaps the most relevant: my poor laptop computer, my beautiful Poiro, is broken. Why, you ask? Well, in part it was simply a Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day, but for the most part I blame Frau Schmidt of the Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof reservation office. (Yes, I'm naming and shaming. Come on, the woman was literally called Frau Schmidt!)
( Read on if you dare... )
More and happier news some other time, but, without my own laptop, I have to follow the rules of the hostel and give up the computer to someone else for a turn eventually. I'm starting to get angry looks. :) I assure you, one day aside, the holiday is going brilliantly and I'm enjoying every minute!
