Yesterday, after a few hours of my return from Gent, I met with Heini and Eleusa (a Brazilian superwoman whom I met in French course) in front of the Bourse (exact time: 16.30 :p). The plan was to go to this Brazilian night in a pub, El Metteko. However when we went there we learned that during the Christmas Market period, they would take a break from this tradition of Brazilian night (afternoon actually) which normally takes place on the first sunday of every month. However we had a very nice evening.
Eleusa came with her husband Philippe (Belgian, yep) and made us talk in French all night which I am grateful for. After a couple glasses of wine, we walked to the Grand Place and watched the show (projection on the town hall). Except the persistent advertisement of Electrabel, it was nice.. And I like the giant Christmas tree in Grand Place with white lights (although it glitters a bit too much sometimes). Last year there were blue flourescents all over the tree, god... (wait, I wrote about this earlier I guess?)
At one point, everybody was hungry and I was dizzy. After all, I wasn't able to recover from my Gent evening yet. So I let them eat their delicious seafood in a restaurant and came home.
