Taking a trip to Bastogne Belgium!

Hello Everybody! I have taken a trip to Bastogne in Belgium!
The day started early, with some bad sleep, and I chilled in bed a bit, and then headed to the train station, which was close! I took the train to Arlon, and started to walk to the bus!
I had a hard time finding where the bus would be at, so I missed the bus I would have taken, so I had to wait an hour for the next one, so I walked around Arlon, and saw that it was a market around, so I checked that one out, and the got on the bus to Bastogne! The bus wanted cash for the ride, but didn´t have change for a huge bill, so I apparently got the ride for free, which was awesome!
I arrived in Bastogne, and went to the 101st airborne museum, and walked around, it wasn't huge, but interesting, I have been here before, 10 years ago! I then walked to a Gen Patton memorial!
Then I walked to the centre of the city, and went to a tank head! I then decided to walk to a memorial near the foxholes just outside of Foy, it started to get cloudy during the walk!
I eventually got there, and saw the memorial, and recognized names from the show Band of Brothers! I then wanted to see the fox holes, but apparently you had to pay to see them, and I decided against it!
So I started to head back, and took the walk back!
I decided to go to the Bastogne Barracks, which wasn't a lot, and I then went to the cemetery just next to the barracks!
I then decided to head back to Luxemburg, and started to walk to the bus station! It took a while, and I also decided to head back to the 101st airborne museum, to buy something to my brother!
I then had to wait for the bus for a bit, which eventually came so I hopped on it, this time I had 6 euros in cash for the bus!
I eventually arrived back in Arlon, and I walked directly to the train station, and I had some minutes to spare for the train to Luxemburg, and it took a while for the train to arrive In Luxemburg!
When it arrived I went to a store and bought some supplies, and left my stuff, and went for dinner! After dinner, I walked back to the hotel and has chilled ever since!
What did I think of Bastogne (and Arlon)? Arlon was nice, the little that I saw, and Bastogne was nice! As I said, it has been quite a while since I was there the last time, and during that time they have started to charge money for seeing the foxholes which sucks! But all in all, I had a good time here, and I will be back sooner or later!
