Estoy en Belgium

I had a safe trip from Denmark to Belgium. For some reason the security guards in Copenhagen didn't really trust me and checked me extremely well. In fact, they emptied my backpack out and ran it through the x-ray machine twice. The security guard who checked me didn't believe that my mp3 player played music and didn't have a hidden blade inside.
Yesterday Anthony and I went to Wavre to visit a youth group which his dad leads with a girl fron the States. The kids were really cool and friendly. I really thought that I would be able to understand quite a bit of French...but the accent totally throws me off. If I read something I can understand 30 - 40% of it, which won't really help me if someone is giving me directions (to the bathroom).

This morning we all headed over to Toni's (Anthony's uncle) house to help move wood into his basement. Everybody will be quite sore tomorrow... After finishing that chore we (Anthony, his friends and I) went to Mons for a beer festival. We just got back from that actually. It was kind of rainy but one of his friends provided some sweatshirts for us to wear (mine was huge).
Tomorrow morning Anthony is driving us up to Brussels for church. After the service nous are driving back for lunch. I will be in Charleoi until Tuesday until I take the train to Brussels to meet up with Anthony (who will be studying until then) and Amy.
