Today we went on a field trip to Brugges in Belgium. Brugges is the most beautiful place I've gone so far. It's a medieval city built entirely on canals, so it's called the Venice of the North. All of the churches, cafes, chocolate shops, houses-- pretty much everything, are really cool looking.
The weather has been perfect here for a week, and today was no exception. We took a boat tour of the city, and then walked around to different points of interest. The city is said to be the home of the Holy Grail, and there is a Basilica in town where it is allegedly stored. Afterwards, we went to a cafe on one of the canals and tried the local beer-- they brought me out a liter of beer, which was kind of crazy.
Last night, I went bowling with a group, which was fun-- I got off to a pretty good start, you can check the pictures out on my album.
