I LOVE heat! The hotter the better! But, I've come to realize I prefer extreme heat when I can step into a lovely air conditioned home. Well, that is NOT the case here in Belgium. The temperature today topped out around 97 degrees, and staying in the house for the day without AC was just not an option. We headed to Bloso Domein Hofstade (a family favorite) for a day of sunshine, heat, and nice cool water. Disclaimer...we do have a portable air conditioner, but we'll just say that it doesn't do the trick like central air. It does, however, make for a more comfortable sleep. A little more comfortable. I won't complain about how loud it is. :)
On to our day!

| I thought you might enjoy a little Speedo shot there on the left...and a little "you have no business wearing that suit" up ahead. I was one of two people that was wearing a swim skirt at the beach. Nothing says, "I'm an American" like being fully clothed at the beach. After some people watching today, I'm not sure why I don't just embrace the regular swimsuit bottoms. Baby steps. :) |

| As you can see, the rest of the country was enjoying a day at the beach with us. :) |

| After church, we went our for dinner with the DeKunder family. We have decided to make this a tradition! We really love spending time with them. |

| You know, this gal is 25% Belgian, and she is embracing it. She took it upon herself to order mussels for dinner. |

| Well done my little Belgian girl! Hoping you've all had a terrific weekend! Until next time, Wendy |
