Okay, I'm off to Belgium...well at least by tomorrow night.  Don't know when I will be able to access to internet during these two weeks.  But I'll definitely update once I get back, hopefully with some really great pictures.

Just to archive the itinerary:

Landing in Brussels on Saturday 8th morning then heading to Ghent on Sunday evening before attending the conference for the next week.  Then I'm off  to Koln, Germany on Friday 14th before heading to Hamburg on Sartuday evening/Sunday morning (midnight there but the sun had just finished setting - really weird  concept).  Will be meeting my friend in Hamburg for the rest of the trip until 18th where I'll have to catch the train back to Brussels.

A whirlwind trip but hopefully a memorable one.
