October 30th, 2006: To Europe We Go!

• “What! we can take up to 25 kilos?”
• How cool, I can email and Skype while flying the friendly skies (for free for the time being)
• I have a conversation IN FRENCH with Jean-Jacques from Brussels. It’s been a while, but it appears that I can manage.
• We arrive in Brussels. I am to be hosted with Chris D’Hont, originally of the Flemmish part of Belgium, with Emilie (“I think this could be a bit dangerous, Erik, but it’s going to be fun”)
