Around Europe in 31 Days!

This is the true story of three friends, finished with their dietetic internship, and traveling Europe for one last adventure before entering the real world. We don't speak anything other than English, and we've been to Europe for a total of a combined 6 days before. This should be entertaining...

More than a little sad to be almost done

It's true, our trip is almost over. This calls for more than just a single tear.

Munich was absolutely amazing. I'm so bummed that we only had 2 days there, but let me tell ya, we packed those days full. Mike's Bike Tour was probably the most fun event of our entire trip. Well, for me anyway. We haven't taken an official tour, but going by the number of times we refer to the tour, our tour guide, our tour friends, and the girl slamming into the BMW three minutes into the tour in a given day, I'd say we all rank it pretty high on our list of trip highlights. It was so much fun that we're definitely doing a MBT in Amsterdam tomorrow. i'm not sure if it can compare, but if it comes close, it'll be totally worth it.

Today we took a day trip to Brugges, which was very cool. Brussels isn't anything to write home abouth (seriously), so we took an hour train north to Brugges, which was much cooler. The chocolate was TO DIE FOR. Oh wait, I forgot. Brussels DOES have a Chocolate Museum, which we obviously felt we needed to see, for reseach purposes only. I can make chocolate now, if someone just supplies me with the cocoa beans. Cocoa beans grow in a fruit too, by the way. OK, I digress.

Brugges kinda reminded me of Venice since it was a bunch of canals. We climbed to the tob of a belfry, only 366 steps though, so it was short climb for us. Riiiight. The food in Belgium, other than the waffles and chocolate of course, is not that great, so we're ready to move on. Not that we expect much from our last stop in Amsterdam, but ya never know.

We come home on Wednesday, so be ready for lots of pictures and tons of stories when we see you next! And Mom and Dad, bring me a bottled Ski to the airport please!
