We had a great time last weekend driving to a beer festival in a tiny Belgian town with our friends Tim and Lynn. Luckily, they had been there last year or else I don't think we would have ever found it! One reason I love living in Belgium is that (I feel) anyone can visit London or Paris and see the major sights, but Belgium is a place where you have to live for an extended amount of time to really feel like you understand it. I definitely felt like we got a truer feel of Belgian culture at this tiny town's beer festival than I could get just touring around the Grand Place. Click here for the photos.
The Women's Club took a tour of an Art Nouveau house this past week. It was built by the architect Paul Cauchie and his wife in 1905. It is incredible the amount of work and love they put into the house. Their daughter let the house fall into disrepair after they died and luckily a couple bought the house and have restored it to its original beauty. The couple that bought the house have been married for 60 years and were still as cute as ever to each other. So sweet! Click here for the photos.
