I haven't written last week so this the 2 weeks in one...

On the 22nd Claire the YFU representitive of the area invited the other exchange students and I to her house so we could all bring a specialty of our countries to her house to try. So I had to find a Canadian recipe to make. I found a recipe for Canadian Butter tarts, which were a pain to make, but everyone loved them!( There is no chocolate, just that the brown sugar here is more darker)



My 8th month in Belgium...has it when fast!!



On the 27th we went to the King's greenhouse because it is only open to the public for a short period of time. Since Eric works as a royal guard for the King, we got in free. It was really pretty and there was a lot of flowers!

Papa smurf!!

We also went to Japan...;)

My Spring Break

My spring break started on the 31st of May and will end the 16th of April. Pretty Sweet!

I stayed with the parents of Eric (my Belgian Bobonne). We went to the Seaside of Belgium by train and walked of the beach. Then Annie and I drove to Luxembourg and stayed with her sister for a night. Annie, Leslie and I then took a day trip to London with the Eurostar train. The ride would have taken about 2 hours but we had to wait an hour on the way there because a train broke down it the tunnel under the sea between France and the UK. On the way back we had to wait about 45mins for the train to arrive at the station. I went to Leuven also, which is where the original university of Belgium was, but they built one in Louvain-la-neuve (which means The new Leuven) for the french speaking Belgians because the university in Leuven is in Femish. I had a wonderful Spring Break and thank Eric's parents for their generosity, they are so nice! I did a lot of shopping and am NOT looking forward to school!!!
