European travel notes

Date: 28/11/99 (Beijing time) weather: cloudy

Morning (4 a.m.), I was Timmer, wash after a ride to HongQiao Airport (5 to 10 minutes).

In the International Hall door until 6: 15 I was inside. As usual, buy airport fee and insurance and baggage check-in, boarding pass, at the same time get through the security check, find the boarding gate, at the computer. Aircraft than originally scheduled 8% 5 minutes delayed take-off, 25 minutes via Beijing, flight time is 1 hour 25 minutes, and then by Germany Munich, finally to Belgium Brussels.

I'm sitting in the center position, it is better to compare air on board, took off after I found a window seat, so you can see the location.

Sky is blue, very soft, but clouds thicker, see anything below. Ear ringing with aircraft and air friction noise. When the air hostesses have breakfast delivered to my front, I really was a bit hungry.

Eaten, feeling a little bored, simply listening to music, watching a minute TV!

Expected to Beijing for 20 minutes at 10 am, Beijing surface temperature minus 1 degree.

The following scene a little to be amplified, the aircraft was landing at Beijing Capital International Airport, which is ready to go to the airport under machine for departure clearance. Finally saw the airport Beijing "above" the two red characters, I arrived in Beijing! (10: 30 pm) a departure formalities have to wait a long time to run, and enter the terminal was heard a strong Opera, "to go to Brussels, please hurry up!" I ran past, Miss some of the Charlie card obliquely asked me: "why do? so slow is that?" and I have some good gas to go back to the sentence: "the nearly trapped!" then and never looking back into the cabin sat down on the in situ, waits for the start of a long journey. (12) finally took off again. (12: 10 min) …

The aircraft landed at Munich International Airport (Beijing time 22: 12 hours, local time 15: 12 min).

I saw there is snow on the ground, a mottled picture. The Sun was already faster in the West, the sky sunset beautiful, like layer light yarn. But I did not use the camera to shoot down, because the effect would not. Aircraft over one hour after take-off, it is expected that 50 minutes after arrival at the destination of the trip--Brussels.

Immediately after the driver to pick more than one hour, around by car arrived at the shelter.

This is like a resort or something, I was the first time I saw such a House, all wood structure, Spire, two-layer or a layer, it facilities compared to regular hotel more kitchen and storage room. All settled down is very late, you wrote this, now is the local 11 pm.

Date: 99/11/30 weather: cloudy

Comparison of busy today, fast work, there are also part of this is not what I do is not processed, hell, I don't want to get this damn thing back to the cabin.

After hours to go to a supermarket purchases.

Big Pack small packages carry home (now known as shelter for the "home"), start up. Fortunately, before his departure with MOM learned a few hands, I started cooking. Finally, food tastes also not bad, some colleagues bought bottles is said to be made in red wine, Bordeaux, although I usually drop teetotaler, but to "Bordeaux wine production of the most famous" this sentence, I have a feeling, a little sweet when you just imported, but swallow after taste is not too comfortable. However, the color of red wine really is beautiful, pure and transparent that gave me the feeling is good, red is not painted. I don't know how to describe what types of red, really feel is appreciated. Previous colleagues and let the cat out of the hand with chili pepper as a result, the smoke in the House, also particularly stifling, and I scrambled to the outside. And so the "smoke" dissipated, I dare to come enjoy my delicious. Gosh, I really don't believe others say their cuisine is on the ball. There are fruits, there is a similar spiked Club of things, but like my fist is so big, the skin is golden yellow, it is difficult to eat, I doubt this is not a fruit, will not be used to cook the vegetables cut flesh like after it is, and eat up cucumber and a bit bitter, I throw up all too late.

10 points for 25 minutes, my eyes straight fight, like my bed ...

Date: 99/12/4 ～ 12/5 weather: cloudy

Finally, the original can be lie-in to Antwerp's plan to temporarily change to go to Luxembourg.

To Luxembourg is 2 pm.

Just think of all the hurried, nor could pat on photos. The next day went to Belgium in Bruges and Leo Stein Ting. In Bruges, sitting around and sightseeing cruises, also see horse-drawn carriage. Leo Stein Ting is one of the city by the sea. To see the vast expanse of ocean, the sea breeze was blowing, the feeling is really great. Dinner entree to the shrimp, the taste is very good.

With 1: Luxembourg is a small country, the capital is also called Luxembourg.

It is due to arrive in the afternoon, so in addition to looking for a hotel outside, the rest of the time to go shopping. Feel the European commercial pay more attention to the packaging, food or commodity, packaging are more elegant. Looking at those great article, really let people have a strong desire to buy. Before Christmas, here is a Christmas atmosphere from some food styling can be seen on, like Santa Claus, Santa Claus of chocolate candy, etc.

Since the hotel was a prior booking, finally found.

I live in a single room, one night, 2000BF equivalent to RMB500, but not TV, it was hell. It's still early, call on colleagues to go outside of the bars. Should a passenger and ice-cream, it is hard, the WAITER did not understand English, pointing out the good half genius to figure out. Back to the hotel is around half past nine in the evening, early sleep tomorrow 12/5, and 6 am departure, to Bruges.

Report II: asleep, the phone rings, just asked: HELLO, someone said: Hi up yet? I haven't opened his eyes and just listen to the words of Chinese before reaction, but immediately I awake, O

LIVER of phone, watch, 5 point 25 minutes, Wow, that's 6 point collection. Throw away the microphone before starting out, damn it!, out of a hurry, even Combs have forgot to ask colleagues borrowed, but borrowed the comb is the premium on the plane, they are too small, I was curly hair, nevermind!

Out of the hotel, anxious to go train station, destination: Bruges.

This is a small city in Belgium, it gives people the feeling of serenity, quiet, you can let people meditation. Sat around sightseeing cruise, there is no high rise buildings, just some simple European style building. Would also like to go horseback, a real carriage?, but the next destination is the seaside, is called Leo Stein Ting place, so you can decide: horse-drawn carriage ride, a must-see at the seaside.

Bruges scenery is good, but when you plan to go out too incomplete, my film has finally run out, shot to the seaside.

That's as far as possible with the brain in mind. Meet the sea, listening to the sound of the waves on the shore, watching the endless ocean, seems to feel nothing, as if all earthly common things are waves washed trimmed, can anything buguanbugu, as long as the Bressanone stands in the sea breeze, feel good. Although they live in the coastal city, but I didn't really see the Harbour, is a bit strange, this time I really feel a real field back to the smell of the sea, really delicious! good like this feeling, this seems to be not so terrible sea, the wind is not so cold, offsite or strange ... ...

On the morning of the first interesting thing, I was busy, suddenly heard a "riot", looking up, I do not know when there is a bit tall "Santa Claus", he is frequently people waving compliments, but he seemed suddenly thought, looking robe, from when the inside pocket and took out a cell phone call to one side, and really funny.

In addition, there are two guys face wash is dark, dressed in a clown suit, to distribute Christmas gifts. (Then know they face a shoe that is bitter that they spent a long time to clean. ), "Santa Claus" got off the phone, I reached out to shake hands with him, as he very politely and I shook hands while I found him a bushy beard is falling, anxious he other hand to press the beard to drag on, I was laughing to death!

Morning, the ground is wet, it rained last night, France weather really is not afraid to tell people about, it's a rainy weather, luckily with an umbrella, it is a wise choice.

Or a "hit" across the places, there are several colleagues or first trip to Paris, I naturally became a tour guide.

The most annoying or weather here, a little rain, stop the rain, made me a little umbrella, your umbrella, annoying. Overall feeling is not very good, in this weather.

From central station take the subway to the Arc de Triomphe, it faces Champs Risha side may be modified, because with high scaffolding surrounding it.

Along the Champs Risha Avenue, Avenue on both sides of the window shows the bustling Paris. Nature still have here shopping, while Shanghai also has a lot of France's brand, but for people in areas of psychology, anything is the most authentic, I chose two cosmetics for laomei as gifts. Came to the Eiffel Tower. Cloudy and cold of it stood there like a proud Knights. All the way along the river side to get to the Louvre. There are many famous collection, I have nothing art for art's cell, things are not very interested. So there would be no closer. Just like making a quick browse part. Time is limited, in order to fully appreciate the Louvre, even within a day is not enough. Many liturgical worship arts of foreigners are brought their own food, it makes me a little admiration.

Out from the Louvre, it was already dark and then walked back to the Champs Elysees Avenue, here in the care of the night make me feel and almost of Shanghai.

Many people are longing for Paris, really came later also think that it's no big deal. Possible in the noise of city life, and more like to leisure living environment.

Go out, the weather is good, but to Disney, it began to rain, it is enough to result in disappointment, across from the studios at the beginning of a movie, or exploded, can't stand the Disney cartoon of Mickey Mouse's "creatures", at the risk of rain or into the Castle.

Ran all the way buying votes, more than pointing on the map to see where stimuli are designated on where to go.

It's all too easy, cross-platform, I nearly fell, but fortunately his hands hold, this not here leave my footprints, even my fingerprints also leave together! think entrance Hexagon tiles may be for sale, at the top you can carve your own name, or printed with your own fingerprints, and then you can put this piece of tile shop in from intake to internal channel and I but this overhead in!

In the rain feels really is not a bad, by driving a car to take the train, and then sit the spacecraft, a pirate ship, then go on the pirate ship, a haunted house, and the fairy tale Castle over to addiction, bigwigs, hair wet and damp clothes care not wipe away the rain, I've never had such a crazy too, feel is really great! enough stimulation!

Last night, slept too late, get up so early is really is bad.

Today's destination is the Netherlands in Amsterdam.

In the station, the eyelids straight fight, but the train, it seems particularly to spirit, see nobody talking I unbearably muggy, tied with a guy gave him out IQ is actually entitled to play some brains sharp turns, see someone pondering, I laugh quick breath.

Then think about yourself a little excessive, feel boring Oh.

This return to the station, not from the main entrance of the central station walk out, but the frontispiece of the scenery here is so beautiful, the weather was good, really is the blue sky and white clouds, sunny but not dazzling, the sky is blue, the sea water is blue, my dress was blue, good weather often provides a carefree feeling, the whole person will feel good, from the station to the main entrance door, there seems to be another sky, the excitement than previous to many.

Here you can see water everywhere, residential areas, are often very small, it is a good place to live. And Paris, in addition to the weather, there lacks a city noise.

In the evening, or take a colleague went to the station on the edge of the famous "red light district, Amsterdam is less than Paris, a romantic, but more a kind of decadence.

Somebody here called WOMEN IN WINDOWS--shop girl. We go forward, to the left there is a heart to put down, you know, this kind of places have everything, and the drug trade, did not want to go, but wrap but those curious guys, look at the guys shooting his chest said that my life safety's sake.

To leave Amsterdam, the next destination is Belgium's ante HP, there's a diamond machining center, it was for the diamond is irresistible temptation, I have fixed the heart.

One out of the station, you see a lot of advertising a diamond ring. The shop stocks to display a variety of jewelry, but made me feel and Shanghai, whether to work or style is Shanghai's exquisite.

Someone bought a 0.25 carat diamond ring VVS-Platinum, the value is $ 400, some say than Shanghai to cheaper, I want to say that cheap stuff is not good, but the words to the mouth and pharynx back, fear will catch it.

In the afternoon, a lot of snow, I was excited about, finally I in Belgium to see snow! really can be described as a furious, good big flakes snowflake Oh, roadside car on accumulated up to snow.

Watch the snow fall, raining, I couldn't help but take to the streets hand pick, it's fun, but some people say I rarely more strange, isn't it, in a long time since I haven't seen snow it, let alone by so much. Also had some people joking with me, saying, let me in the snow on the afternoon, a beautiful streets and beautiful little snowman. Fun to play, I don't want to take, especially snow to freeze to death.

Tonight went very distinctive Turkey restaurant for dinner.

It is a bit like the inside furnishings, lighting, adjusting for advanced very dark, I sat on the edge of the table outside coating of the wall has dropped a large block, exposing the inside of the brick, but look closely, it is oil painting, after mentioning it, understand that the restaurant owner's fashion. Door hangers on many Turkey costume, I go to spur of the moment, with a set to wear, like a red robe, good sink Ah, clothes decorated with many metal accessories.

Dinner is meat, also with a little rice, mixed with tomato sauce.

What I want is mixed, with chicken, beef, mutton, pork. Thought such a race is not to eat meat. Meat is roasted, although not used, or just taste some, but fortunately you can swallow. Dessert to the Turkey featured pudding ice cream, feel like China tofu. A meal eaten down, feeling in the stomach is not very comfortable. Home Quick 10 points, or eat some fruit and then sleep.
