Yesterday I started my journey to see Chateau de Noisy.
I woke up early to walk to Brussel- Luxembourg station, which is across town from where I´m staying.
I managed to go the wrong way, so it took me 40min longer to find the station. When I finally got there and bought the ticket, I had to wait about an hour for the next train, and when I jumped on the train, it turns out it was the wrong one.
The travel plan by train to the village is Brussels to Dinant, to Gendron-Celles. The train I went on didn´t go to Dinant. So I had to change trains to go back to Dinant, and then go to Gendron- Celles.
When I finally got to where i´m supposed to, I noticed a group of travellers, Which I thought that they maybe are going to the sam place as I am. Which turns out they didn´t. I wound up in a village called Forfooz, Which was further away from the village that I was really heading to.
So I walk from Forfooz, via Veves (in which I saw Chateau de Veves) to Celles, in which Chateau de Noisy is.

So I walk from Forfooz, via Veves (in which I saw Chateau de Veves) to Celles, in which Chateau de Noisy is.
It took me a while to find the place, and as I was walking up towards the gates to the manor, I was greeted by some workers fixing security, saying that i´m not allowed to go in there.
As they saw me, I couldn´t really sneak in now. so, disheartened, I walked back to the station, I saw a sign saying Gendron, which at first I thought were the station ( which I remembered later was Gendron Gare) so I followed the sign, so I walked 2 miles before seeing another sign saying that the station are 2 miles on the way I came from. So even more disheartened, I walked back, towards the station. the sad part is that the station was only 300m from where I turned and walked the extra miles.
When I finally got the station, I had to wait about 40min for the train, which turned out the be 30 min late. and because if the lateness, I miss my connection train, so I had to take another train, to Namur, and change from there to Brussels.
In total I must have walked at least 30 miles, and my feet is killing me. I still have problems walking.
The upside of the whole day trip that I got a lot of exercise, and got to see the Belgian nature. Which was awesome!
