It has been 3 months since my wife arrived and I have been really busy in wandering in and around Belgium.
I would like to mark these trips as a fond memory.
Jan 28 - trip to Amsterdam:
Our first trip outside Brussels. We started very early and caught the 6:22 train and we reached Amsterdam at around 9:40 am.
We had our breakfast in the train prepared by her of course ;-). We set out to the country side of Amsterdam (cheese farm and windmill) after we saw the Madame Tussad wax museum.
I must convey that it was very ordinary when compared to the museum of the year 2008 when I was dumbstruck by the sheer number of their creativity.
Nevertheless, its a money waste for me :-(...
Cheese farm and Wind Mill Villages were beautiful. The windmill village is the venue in one of Nanban song (I wonder why most of the films' songs are shot in Amsterdam and surroundings ;-))....
We took some pics and came back to the city at around 6 pm.
At around 6:30 pm, we boarded the canal cruise in the city (since we didnt go around the city), but there was a mishap when a person threw a stone at our boat which broke the windshield at the back compeltely.
As expected, the boat driver or captain, didn't move until the police arrived, by which the time was around 8pm.
We caught the 8:46 train and reached back home by midnight.
On the whole it was a wonderful trip.
Feb 4 - Luxembourg - 2 days
Anand Ajithkumar err Ashok kumar is back and with that I have one of my best friends here. We decided to plan a trip along with Anand and family and we proceeded with the trip. We caught the first train at 6:50 and reached Luxembourg @9:45pm.
We were very surprised to see a freezing Luexmbourg (-12 degrees while the prediction was 1 degree), but that didnt dampen our spirits as we started roaming around the city.
The casemates were closed, but we enjoyed some treasure hunt like walking.
The night, we played cards for the entire night starting almost next morning...
It was fun and it reminded me of the coorg trip that I went in 2007 with my ex teammies, which turned into a team building event inside the room.
The next day we woke up late, and roamed around as far as possible and we returned the sunday night at around 9.30 pm.
On the whole, it was a very enjoyable trip.
Other trips include short trips to Antwerp, Tournai which were not worth mentioning ;-)
Will be back with the next travelogue soon... ;-)
