On the Road

Another day on the road… We’re on our way back to Norway, so there’s nothing much exciting happening. Everyone is tired of traveling and I honestly can’t wait to get back home. It’ll be nice to have a homemade dinner for once. Though, I’ll miss everything. I already miss Paris and especially the Louvre. I wish I could go to the Louvre everyday and just sketch whatever I want to or read up on the history of numerous artifacts. It sure has been an awesome and life-changing experience traveling through Europe.

We drove through two new countries today: Belgium and the Netherlands. We stopped by a very cute, little town in Belgium called Brugge (pronounced Broosh). It was a totally different world compared to the city we drove from in France. There were tons of more people, lots of shops, and medieval architecture. It’s a place worth stopping by.

Later, we were in the Netherlands and also found a nice city. It was bigger than Brugge with more people and larger buildings. There were literally bikes everywhere! There were also bike roads people rode on, which also had streetlights. I found that so fascinating. It made the city feel different from all the other big cities we’ve visited.

We arrived in Bremen, Germany later today. It was around 7 pm when we checked in and found our rooms. I think we were driving for over 6 hours in total today. There was so much driving and my whole body has been cramped up. When I was done unloading my luggage, I went on an evening walk with my dad. I just needed to get some sort of exercise.

My evening with my dad was really amazing. It’ll be an evening I will never forget. There were people everywhere drinking beer and having a great time outside. We found a nice outdoor bar. He ordered a beer, while I had an icy cold Coke. We found some seats right next to a big river. We talked about the most random things, some being important. He sure made me think twice about some things 🙂 It was such a nice night.
