Well, unless there is an internet cafe at Schipol airport, this will be the end of posting until we get home and I can look at all the pictures I took--at which point I'll post a bit more and try to give you some of the best ones.
In a few minutes, we are going to unpack everything and repack, trying to guess what bags customs will want to see, which bag we'll check if we have to (though we think that we have in fact managed to do this trip with carryon luggage only), and maybe to sample a little more Mary. Then I'll have a bath in the way-too-short tub, throw out anything unecessary, and make sure that tomorrow will be stressfree, at least until after breakfast.
We may have erred slightly in planning this last leg of the trip. We decided to spend as much time in Brussels as possible, and therefore intended all along, to stay here tonight, and take the train to the airport tomorrow.
The problem is that it is a 3 hour train ride followed by a 3 hour wait at the airport; a 7 plus hour flight, followed by two hour wait at the airport in Montreal, before our bus will leave, and then, a two hour flight home. Do the math...we are insane!
And we just realized that sometime this afternoon.
We get in sometime around 11 p.m. tomorrow, after beginning the travel the equivalent of 4 a.m.
Yup, so glad we took Thursday off.
But, to make the transition back to the real world easier, I have planned to spend the afternoon on Thursday here (oh, I'm sorry, I can't link to that....it's a surprise for someone!)
Should help, don't you think?
