Brussels, Belgium

We took off on the train on Saturday. In 2.5 hours, we were in Brussels. We had Belgium beers, Belgium waffles and bought some of the best chocolates we've ever tasted.

Absinthe. It's a powerful drink.

The process goes like this: you place the silver contraption over the glass, put the sugar cube over the grate, and light the cube on fire to melt it into the Absinthe. I guess it makes liquid poison taste like somewhat sweeter liquid poison. We didn't melt our sugar all the way, as you can see, and so it didn't disolve. Yuck!
