Colin and I were lucky enough to have some visitors this summer! Some of my dearest college girlfriends Kristina and Lucy came to visit us. They spent the night in Heinsberg, and then we made our way to the Flower Carpet in Brussels, spent a couple days tasting Belgian beer and chocolates in Bruges and a made final stop in Amsterdam.
Back in junior year at UCLA, Kristina, Lucy and I all traveled abroad together. The three of us spent time in Ireland, England and Paris and even met up at Oktoberfest in Munich. Kristina and I lived together while we "studied" in Florence while Lucy lived in Sevilla. So being back together in Europe for more travel time was awesome - and led to lots of reminiscing about our fun times 9 years ago!! (9 years... REALLY? It still feels like yesterday...)

| The flower carpet is put together in the Grand Place in Brussels once every two years for a few days... We were lucky to overlap with the timing, but by the time we got there (2 days after it was first designed), the flowers had faded quite a bit! |

| We had to take the traditional "post card pic" in Bruges |
 |
| Colin and I have a pic here from every year since we've moved to Germany. Fun that we have one with Mini Cav in it too! |
 |
| We spent most of our time in Bruges touring beers and enjoying walking around the town. |
 |
| And getting waffles. They are so delicious!! |
 |
| In Amsterdam we went to a great Indonesian restaurant and enjoyed a stroll through the Jordaan and Vondelpark. |
