We're staying in a town called Herent, in Belgium. Our apartment is in a renovated manor house on a working farm (goats, chickens, ponies, cat). Herent is a few kilometers north of Leuvan and only 20 minutes from Jane, Michael and our new granddaughter Zoë.
It's an easy drive back and forth except for the snow and Belgium drivers. Today we're off to our first babysitting job!!!!

ReplyDeleteIs it hard to drive in the snow in Belgium because of the snow (different from Toronto's), a poorly-winterized car, or mainly the low winter-driving-skills of many other drivers?
I thought Canadians weren't allowed to complain about driving in the snow when in other countries (with the possible exceptions of Finland and Russia).
Hope you get the chance to enjoy some of the local beers
ReplyDeleteWelcome to my country
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the arrival of your new granddaughter!
ReplyDeleteWelcome to Flanders! (I live in Ghent) BTW: you're right about the driving.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to be visiting Ghent next week or the week after. Maybe I can buy you a beer?
