[014] Traveling
Paris was quite refreshing, and I did like those pastries that they had in this one little shop inside the one alley that's quite like our own Diagon alley over there.
Matthew went to visit his uncle for a little while, though it was when we had to attend to some business. Still, it was nice to greet his uncle Francis and his brother Alfred when we came to pick up Matthew for an early dinner before going back to the inn to sleep for the night.
Now, however, we're in Brussels, the capital city of Belgium! We had a business meeting and a rather large contract finalization this morning, so now we have the rest of today and tomorrow afternoon quite free until we then have to go to Berlin in time for dinner and some rest.
Still, it's a little odd to know that we had to do our contract today in English, French, and Dutch because some of the investors are the rather proud Flemish. Besides, they're rather touchy on the subject, so we had to oblige.
Anyhow, we're going to take a look around the historic sites and the newer, more modern areas as well. Though personally, I'm going along with Matthew to sample the waffles and chocolate that Belgium is world-famous for. Hmm, if I'm not mistaken, the Godiva chocolate makers are also here. Thank Merlin for their magical subdivision as well~
Until next time, I guess. Hope you're all enjoying your summer holidays!

Personally, I'm quite glad that I didn't fail any of my classes. It would have been bad if I had to go back there for the summer and do extra studies instead of taking my mind off things with this trip. So many things...
I just hope he'll have fun during the summer. At least, it seems that he'll be looking forward to his trip to Italy with him.
