He's back in town!

A nice surprise for Leuvenaars today..

Sunny memories..

Rainy days have come to Leuven.. yet, my sunny memories remain..

This is a small street in the center of the city.. restaurants on both sides, tables outside, crowded in the (warm) evenings.. No matter what you feel like eating, you can find it here.

Cables are underrated..

Since I did not have internet at my room for a week, I was going to other places for some free wireless.. and some free coffee (yep, there are such places here)..
Now I finally have internet at home... what a bliss.. No free coffee, but I can wear pajamas while I browse..

Sometimes things are not at their best..

Belgian rain - not like any other..

Everybody, sing along: "Rain, rain, go away..." :D

The double-fried potato

If you consider coming to Belgium you should be prepared.. French fries are not what you think they are.. Or at least the Belgians claim so.
I heard that story (there are, of course, other variations): During WW I American soldiers arrived in Belgium (the French-speaking part) and tried the fries. Confused by the language around them, they thought they were in France.. and therefore called the fries "French"..
No matter if that's true or not, the fries taste differently. They are freshly cut, fried twice (yes, two times), fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside.. And, you know what? They are actually damn good..

(That's my small portion from today.)
