Antwerp

Today was another easy day. It might sound dumb, but I think time goes by a lot quicker because there’s a window in the room I’m working in. Work wise things went smoothly. I got a lot of work done and had a really productive meeting.

We took a really long lunch today, starting at 12. We went for a 9km run (~5.5 miles) around the canals. It was a beautiful day today, so it was nice to be able to enjoy it. It was bright and sunny out, and 25 degrees Celsius (75 degrees Fahrenheit), which if anything was a little hot for running. Tomorrow is supposed to hit 27C (80F)!

After work, we all went over to Annemie’s new apartment in Antwerp, which was REALLY nice, and then went down town for dinner at the Berlin. It was a pretty nice restaurant and we took our time and talked a whole bunch. Another relaxing but nice night. I kind of wish I got more of a chance to check out Antwerp, but I’m pretty tired, so having an early night home wasn’t so bad. I got back to my hotel at 10:30pm.

Tomorrow night is the company Drink Up. In Belgium at EMC, they spend the first Thursday of each month drinking at a bar down the street after work. I guess like 40-60 people usually go, so it should be a really good time. So that will take up that night, and then I’ll have just one last night in Belgium before I come home, which I think I’ll spend going back to Brussels to check out the Atomium.

But as for now, I’m exhausted, so here’s to going to bed before 3am.
