Arrival in Belgium

So this is my blog for CAAH and I want to document all of my adventures.

Our trip starts a lot earlier than most Clemson programs I believe I think we left the states on the 8th or the 9th. We all waited impatiently at the Charlotte airport, meeting each other, but the most brutal part of our trip was the six hour layover in D.C.
It gave us enough time to realize pretty much everyone in our group is cool, to complain about how much traveling sucks, and to learn people's names. Sleeping pills assisted in flying from America to Belgium.
We landed in BXL <3
Luckily for us, right downstairs is the train station!

PS there is a ton of street art just lying around Brussels. Some of it is even state sponsored!

We boarded the train and in just a few stops were right in the VERY center of the city, where we checked into the gorgeously mod and hip Hotel Ibis, a stone's throw away from the famous Grand Place.
We took our showers for the day to wash away days of travelling and got ready for our big debut!
