Day 13: Bruges

Bruges day 13:

Castle

 I finished up my last touristing of Ghent by visiting the Castle, which was cool and close to the hostel and served as a big symbol of the city. It was raining and overall miserable outside so this was a good activity to do, half of the tour was inside and the rest was looking from a good view. To end my stay in Ghent, I went to Agrea cafe which supposedly has the best waffle in the whole country. And let me confirm: they are good! I got a waffle with whipped cream and warm sweet cherries!  It was probably the most expensive waffle I've eaten at almost seven euros but it was definitely the best. Those cherries were to die for!! Every bite included a square of waffle with a cherry in the middle and a small scoop of whipped cream. Yum to the max! 

The Best Waffle!!! YUM!!

Time to travel to my next destination: Bruges. After waiting almost an hour for the tram to take me to the train station, I had to rush to catch the train. I was rewarded with a not too crowded car and no one sitting next to me. Sleep time. I should have realized then how badly I needed sleep. It wasn't until after my trek in the rain to the hostel and sitting in the bed that I realized I need to sleep some more. I went for a small nap of 3 hours. Should I get up and go for dinner?  I really didn’t think I had the energy for that, so I went back to bed for another 5. I woke up at 1 am, drank some water, went back to the bathroom, and pondered if I could actually sleep throughout  the rest of the night, but my body was in such bad condition that I only woke up at 9 again. Got up felt that I was living thought not alive and headed for a shower and breakfast. I normally don’t buy the expensive hostel breakfast, but I needed food and orange juice for the vitamins. After drinking three glasses of orange juice, I started day 14.

Bye-bye Bruges
