Belgium Lessons

With two rest days, and being the morning of the World Cup I thought I put my nerves to rest by writing a post of what I have learnt in Belgium.
#1- lots of smog, yeah smog; they call it smog but really looks like fog. It’s everywhere in Belgium, probably will affect my vision today at the World Cup.
#2- shit selves, yes this will probably also be seen a lot today at the race venue toilets. The toilet bowls are different here in Belgium. They have kind of a shelf and then a little hole, so when you do you know what, it sits there on the bowl and with low water pressure it is really hard to wash off.
#3- Washing machines aren’t simple in Belgium. They may look simple but when you put your laundry in a washer in Belgium, don’t expect to get it out easily. The door might lock, or it might say you have 5 minutes left for about the next day or so. If you can get it out, it might have forgotten to do the spin cycle and be soaking wet.
#4- Lack of refrigeration. Things like milk, eggs and other grocery items that you buy in North American aren’t refrigerated. If you think you can’t find these items at the grocery store in Belgium, it is not because they aren’t there but because you are looking in the wrong section. These are in the heated isles and not refrigerated at all???
#5-Stroop Waffles. Yep, these are good. If someone introduces you to these, you must follow these rules......Do not try them. They are highly addictive and might cause severe weight gain. It might also be their secret plan to get you fat and slow by the last few races you do in Belgium.
Well I got to go prepare my stuff for the today’s race. It looks like it is going to be a really wet race. Still raining and has rained all night. Wish me luck.
Wishing everyone a belated Merry Christmas!
