I've spent most of the day sitting at a terminal in JFK, waiting to fly to Belgium.
I'll be honest, I don't know a lot about the country or it's history. What little I've learned has told me about a country very much at odds with itself. I'm curious how it plays out in person.
I can't wait to eat local food, visit Amsterdam (The Netherlands I am much more familiar with) and see some bands in Belgium.
I'm sorry I didn't have much for you today, the last week has been preparing for a month away. Our house and dogs are in good hands. I'm very tired and I fear the pandemic awoke a bit of agoraphobia.
I'll try to update with some regularity here and make smaller updates on facebook. The highlights there and the more nuanced here. If you know anything we must do while in the country, leave a comment.
