Lovely story.

Of course they might have just phoned each other to pocket a 50's bill like the one you passed onto the guy from Vermont ...

Coffee. First of the usual three cups. Cream & sugar.

Stayed up late last night talking, so slept in this morning. Not that I need an excuse to sleep in on Sundays.

I read about it in wikipedia. It must be a fantastic place. You must regain your strength and enjoy it, for us also.

I can't even imagine how hot that is. Stay hydrated and safe. I'm looking forward to more of your travel journal posts.

Leffe. A simple, serious and highly satisfying Belgian beer.

I will have a first little sip that stays in the mouth and maybe 2 nice drinks, all the way down. One at the end, just for the fun of it, after a little while.
