Happy Easter!\u00a0 We are on day four of our trip and having a great time. We took a fun bike tour on day one, which gave us an overview of the main sites. Brussels is a beautiful city, and while it may be low on sites, it has a great atmosphere and friendly people. By far, the best part for us has been the food and drink: mussels, Belgian chocolates, waffles, croissants, espressos and of course great beer.<\/p>\n
We are staying in an ideal location at a B&B inside the Galerie de la Reine. Normally, it is very quiet, but yesterday the owner informed us there was going to be a party in the building, or as he put it \u201can electric gay rager.\u201d Because of the inconvenience, he offered to comp us the room that night.<\/p>\n
Based on this information we decided to rework the day\u2019s schedule. We thought if we could take a cat nap we would be able to stay out later and miss most of the noise. When we woke from our six-hour \u201ccat nap\u201d it was 10pm and the \u201cgay rager\u201d hadn\u2019t even started. On our way out to dinner at 10:30, the bouncer confirmed (in heavy French accent) this was going to be \u201ca very special event\u201d that was expected to last until 6am. When we got home at 3, the \u201cgay rager\u201d was in full swing and sure enough, lasted until 6:30. Damn, those Belgian gays know how to party.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
