Day 4 - Wednesday Nov. 22 - Liege, Belgium and a tiny bit of the Netherlands

We left Luxembourg the next morning and headed up to Liege, Belgium. I really wanted to go to Brugge (which is also in Belgium) but it was a lot further away and didn't really feel like wasting half the day travelling in the car....so we hit up the Belgium city that would kind of be on our way. I know Julie and I really liked Liege...I think because there just seemed to be a lot going on. A lot of people walking around and shopping....and a lot of good food. We love the good food. :)
After Liege, we decided that we should drive through the corner of the Netherlands..so we went to Maastricht. We were going to walk around, but had a hard time finding a place to park...so we just drove through the city....basically so we could say we went to the Netherlands. :)
Then we headed the rest of the way to Dusseldorf where we were staying with the Crapo family...They used to live in Montreal about 10 years ago and are good friends with my family. It was soooooo nice to stay with them. They were so good to us. The first night we were there, they made crepes...which was great because it made up for the crappy italian dinner we had had in France! :)


Belgium Fries

Belgium Waffles! Ok - these were Delicious!! I was very surprised at just how good they were!

Walking around Liege





The Netherlands

Then we left for Dusseldorf...but on our way we decided to drive through Maastricht...which is in the corner of the Netherlands.

Julie took these pictures of Mastrich as we drove through the city....



Back in Germany


We arrived in Dusseldorf and stayed with the Crapo family for the next couple of nights...This is a picture of me, Brittany, Jonathan, and Teagan...Just missing Leslie and Brianne. It was so much fun to see them again...(I think it had been about 10 years or so...)
