I did it! I finally did it! Let me tell you the story!
We woke up at 7am, eating some breakfast, and having to use the bathroom. We arrived at the translation at 8.30, buying our train tickets to Gendron-Celles. We had to switch trains at Namur and Dinant.
We jumped on the train at 8.45, which became delayed during the trip so we arrived behind schedule in Namur, but it didn´t really matter, as we had half an hour in Namur to take the train to Dinant. We got on the train, and switched trains again in Dinant to get to Gendron - Celles.

We arrived in Gendron-Celles at 11.30, and started our walk to Chateau De Noisy, which is a run down castle which has it roots during the 19th century, and is on my bucket list. we followed the main road, and after an half hour, we saw another castle, Chateau De Veves, which coincidently has the same owners as the castle we are going to.
Just after seeing De Veves, we do see Chateau De Noisy in the distance, a tower over the treeline.
Earlier, we got the advice not going through the front gates, so we looked for a way by the road to get in.
Johan started to have some doubts, but eventually we found a path, having a green gate, which we found a way through, and we started to trek through the woods.
After 20 minutes in the woods, we saw that we were close to the castle, so we looked for a guard, which we didn´t see, and we headed inside.

We had a look around, seeing the kitchen, and I found a way to the clocktower, which Johan had to miss, because of the lack of mobility, as I don´t want to risk him getting hurt, because of the lack of flooring. but it had an amazing view.
We tried to find the bathroom, which is supposed to be a sight, but we decided to head back. We talked about paying the village of Celles a visit, but it started to rain a little bit, as we arrived at the train station, it started to piss down.
And realising me missed the train by an half an hour, which made us wait over an hour for the next train. So we waited patiently, and the trip back went smoothly, and we arrived back in Brussel close to 19.00. After the train ride we went to the hotel, dumped our bags and went to grab something to eat, at Pizza hut. Which took forever, forever to order, forever to get the food, and forever to get the desserts, which they apparently forgot!
