so abbey got here to bitburg on thrusday and spent the night. friday morning i took the half hour that it takes to show her bitburg and then we drove to brussles. brussles was really great. i was able to spend time with my friend liesl and she showed us around brussles and we got to try the stereotypical belgium food (like a belgium waffle). it was so good just talking to liesl and being with someone that shares my same attitude toward so many things, it was such a refreshing and encouraging time. the next morning abby and i headed for holland. we
went to leiden and went to the market which was cool and we ate stropwaffles and had tea. that night we were able go to the beach and it was so good to be near water, i was suprised by how much i missed that. the next day we went to this place that was a minature version of the whole country it was cool and after another long meal with her family we headed back. (overall holland was ok, it was a cool country but i think i would have had more fun with y'all.) on the way back to germany abbys gas light came on (as we crossed the holland border into belgium), there were no open gas stations in belguim so we just pressed on (abbey was freaking out and i wasnt that stressed about it), when we got accross the german border we were pulled over by the polezi. they checked to see if we were bringing any illegal drugs back from holland (dont worry we werent). after they had throughly checked our car we asked them if they knew of any open gas stations. they told us the nearest one that might be open was in prum (about 20k away). we made it to prum (about 45mins of driving with the gas light on) but the gas station was closed. shannon ended up having to come get us, it was an adventure but it was fun (i think abbey would have strongly disagreed with that statement). so that was my trip, brussles was incredible, holland was ok.
this was in brussles, liesl told me that rubbing this is supposed to bring me a good lover.

I ate a Belgian/Belgium (?) waffle in Brussels too! Did you get to see Mannequin Pis? And the museum with all of his outfits? haha
Also, I am going to work with high schoolers this year. Senior girls. It is a big step for me, but I feel God pulling me towards it!
Love you and praying for you
i hope you get a good lover then!
i believe ali greenaway is currently in belgium. it's a small country, you should be able to find her fairly easily. glad to hear things are going well. any more news on that poland thing?
Hey Lauren,
You were heading to Holland the
morning Alli was coming back to
Brussels from Hungary and Austria
Missed each other by hours...(
Her summer is almost over,7 days
till she's back in Ca.
I was gonna say that it should be easy to find the one super dark skinned girl with the brown hair in Belgium, but then I thought you would hate the over generalization of all the ethnic stereotypes, and then I read Debbie's comment and realized she isn't there any way, and then I thought, "Why didn't I put any periods in this extremely long run on sentence?"
Amiable post and this enter helped me alot in my college assignement. Thank you for your information.
