I mistakenly pushed the send button rather than the save button on that
last post. Consequently, it went out raw — mispellings, errors, and all.
This little Blacberry keyboard causes lots of fumble-fingered spelling.
I’ll correct it online whenever I get an internet connection.

Dinner was good. It was indeed shrimp fried rice. There was apparently a
large birthday party at the restaurant. While I was eating, they set up a
long table and seating for about 30 people. They started to arrive at 7:30.
The party looked like it was for an elderly lady as everyone coming in came
up and greeted her with a kiss. The Belgians greet family with either one
kiss on the cheek or three kisses (left, right, left). I think the decision
about 1 or 3 depends on how close the family relationship is.

The birthday meal was going to be a buffet. It looked pretty good. I don’t
know how they would have served everyone otherwise.

So I’m back in the hotel and drawing a bath. I’m a bit chilly so that
should feel good. Then I’ll read for a whie and head for bed. A big
sightseeing day tomorrow!
