Hello! I know i am late with my blog updates, but here we go!
Yesterday we woke up at 8am to eat breakfast and finish up our packing before leaving the hostel at 10.
We walked to Central Station and took the train to Schiphol Airport. Were we checked in our bags and went through Security, where the reacted to my computer battery.
After some waiting we got through, and checked out the airport merchandise. I bought some sandwiches and some water.
The plane were 10 minutes late (lifted 13.50), which went smooth. 
We landed on time and took the train to Zuidstation, which is close to our hotel, and there´s a circus in town, which disoriented me, as usually I know my streets.
After we checked in, we went for a walk, seeing Mannekin Pis and Grand Market Place, where we had something to eat, some meatballs and fries.
​After that we bought some supplies for our trip to Bastogne.

Trip to Bastogne!

Today we woke up at 7.30, having time to wake up and go to the bathroom before heading out to Zuidstation to go to Bastogne. The train left at 9.33 and we switched from a train to a bus in Libramont.
We arrived in Bastogne at 13.00, so we walked into a Museum (the 101st airborne museum). Afterwards we decided to walk to Foy, which took over an hour.

What´s in Foy you might ask? There are remnants of the foxholes where the soldiers dug themselves down during the war, which was cool to see. 
So we walked back, and decided to head back to Brussels. so we took the bus back to Libramont, and the train back to Brussels.
