Here Comes the Sun (Do do do do)

I might be the most contagious person to ever grace this green earth! At this moment, Emlyn lies in her bed upstairs barley clinging to life. I, again sit in the office, this time listening to Opa play the Saxophone. Wait, maybe that's Oma.

Last night Koen came over around 8 pm and we hung out until about midnight. It was so much fun catching up! He has not changed a bit. He said the same of us, only that we grew taller...It was strange to not have to whisper after Oma & Opa went to sleep. I am so accustomed to being at home in Granite Bay where my mom hears a spider crawling on the marble floor or if I arrive from the bars any later than 11 pm my only way in is through the doggie door!! Hey, at least I still fit!

This morning I woke up around 8:30 because our younger cousin Karen came over for the day. She wanted Emlyn and I to take her shopping. Hmmmm. Shopping in Tienen?! We went around to the "boutiques" and drug stores, the extent of shopping Tienen. We finished with a drink on one of many terraces that fill the town square. Since Emlyn was not feeling well she stuck with a Fanta. As for me...well...I'm in freakin' Belgium! Beer please! 11 am in Belgium is 5 pm somewhere else in the world right?!

The weather is slowly getting better so Emlyn, Karen and I sat out in the front yard and bathed in the sun...true Cali style :)

I think now since everyone else is occupied with other things I will go to the park and film! This evening we are going to Koen's house to play Texas Hold 'em...Since I don't play poker I am just going to hang out, take photos and drink some Vino!!

Tot Straks,
Lauren
