Chocolates, Beer, and Waffles

What country is known for these three things. If you guessed The Netherlands you are incorrect. The correct answer is Belgium and we made sure to sample each on our day trip to Antwerp, Belgium. Leaving from Spijkenisse, Holland by car, it took us one and a half hours to get all the way into a major city of another country. The Dutch people can drive into four or five countries in a single day!

Right now we are staying with a great family; Erik, Gosia, and their daughter Eva. They made us feel at home since the moment we arrived. We will be here until Saturday when we make our way to France to visit our newly married friend Jeff. So far, The Netherlands has been a very nice stay. We have been able to relax and enjoy the company of the family we are staying with. We have upcoming plans to visit Amsterdam on Monday and Rotterdam later in the week. Both should be very enjoyable. Stay tuned for more adventures.
