Boycotting Snoring

We are currently in Croatia, checked in at a guesthouse with our own private room.  Which means we don't have to be quiet.  And we don't have to put up with snoring.  And, to top it off, we have wireless!!!  Tomorrow we're off to do some hiking around a beautiful area called Plitvice.  But here are some pictures from the last bits of our trip.

Well, as usual, these didn't load in the order they were supposed to.  Oh well.  This was our breakfast of Belgian waffles smothered in strawberries and cream...and we got these in...drum roll...Belgium!  Complete with tea for two.
One of the great things about being in Germany is that you see my name everywhere.  I mean, it's the German spelling Ludwig instead of Lodwig, but still.
This is me in Leipzig outside the Thomaskirche where Bach taught and Mozart once played the organ.  And if you look closely at the bottom right (I don't know if they're clear or not) are Mozart and Beethoven, who have been traveling with us.
This is me in Berlin at the Holocaust memorial.  I really liked Berlin.  It's really cool how accessible they make everything.  There are a lot of free things, and they do what they can to make sure people learn the history of what happened there.  They're both honest about the horrors and eager to show the good they have to offer too.

This place is called Zaanse Schans.  It's a little Dutch village about a fifteen minute train ride from Amsterdam.  It was so cute and pretty, so once we finally found the ferry that took us out to the island, we loved the view.
Here's me in the village.  See, I'm still alive.
These are the chocolates we bought in Bruges, Belgium.  And I'm posting it here so that I can rub it in that we got a package of two dozen Ferrero Rocher chocolates for around six euro.  You can usually find a package of six for six dollars.  We felt crunchy.
Here I am in Brussels enjoying the instrument museum.  It was really fun because admission came with an audio guide that would play selections of the instruments you'd see when you were standing in front of them.  Needless to say, I had tons of fun.  And as a side note, Belgium and Holland both had great bells.  The bells didn't just toll out the usual tones.  They played actual folk tunes and such.  I loved them!
Apparently, fries were invented in Belgium.  So we got the traditional and oh so healthy lunch of fries with mayo.  They were good fries.

Did ew know...?

I know something you don't know.

Thank you for choosing Lod's Little Tidbits, and have a nice day.
