Dec 13 - Brussels, Belgium

Slept until 9:30. Had breakfast by myself and left for Brussels. A heavy frost left the earth white and I found out later it had dropped to minus 14 Centigrade. I painfully cycled into Tournai, Belgium and got on the 12:35 train to Brussels Midi Station.

I wandered hopelessly for two hours, looking both for a cheap map or an Audergheml. I didn't find the first but found the second. The family wasn't at home but I was invited next door to wait. Mr and Mrs Abdellaoui arrived at 5 pm. Spicy spaghetti for dinner. Watched television and wrote.
