TOO MUCH FUN in Brussels

QB and Butch missed their train back to Paris!

QB made sure her long time friend Butch Francisco's first time to Europe would be unforgettable. After attending the Paris Cinema Project and seeing the sights in Paris, QB brought Butch to Brussels for a day of sight-seeing, shopping for fine Belgian lace and needle point, Moules for lunch and tasting the best chocolates in the world!  The two had too much fun they missed their train back to Paris and ended up staying the night in Brussels!  They returned on the first early morning train with just enough time for Butch to pack his belongings and not miss his train to Lourdes! Unforgettable first-time-in-Europe-trip indeed it was!
