FAIL!
We got screwed by a stupid restaurant. The waiters here obviously got the know-how of screwing people around. So we left a fortune there for dry seafood and not-well-cooked paella. Yay. Here’s to my naivity!!!cheers.
Well i guess i was taught a lesson. These 3 months were about learning things the hard way. Hope it will pay off one day.
Wakey, wakey!
Yesterday morning- the youngest came to wake me up and got into my bed
This morning- all three kids, one after another marched into my bed
Tomorrow morning- we will see
I just founf out the kids go back to school next thursday! YAY.

They should cast me as the wolf from the Little red riding hood. All the food I ate today could probably make one hell of a fat red riding hood. Shit.
I just wish the hunter would come along to cut open my stomach and get it out.
Damn you, my weak mind that cannot resist! Damn you! you shall be whipped or something.
Day 77- Knokke
So today the family decided to take me with them on a trip to the belgian sea. We took off thinking it’d be a 1 hour ride. No, it wasn’t. Since it was the second weekend in two months that it was really hot sunny weather, all the people of Brussels decided to cool down at Knokke- little village on the southern coast. So it turned out to be a 2 and a half hour ride.
The smallest one really wanted to sit on my lap (6 people in the car), however, 30 minutes later he changed his mind and seemed to be irritated by me (i did nothing of course) so his mom took him to the front on her lap. Then he wanted to go back to me. And then again back to momma. And this went on for a while. But then we finally arrived.
The beach was really pretty with little white shacks in rows. The water was cold. Though somehow, after 10 minutes of standing in the water, you really thought it was warm. After all it was hot as hell out there. I got a bit of a sunburn on my back. But i can say i swam for 3 minutes in the belgian sea. yay. Then i hurried back to my nanny duties
I didn’t really get to relax, since i was basically at work. So i stayed mostly with the youngest, which appeared to be a pain in the ass in the afternoon since he didn’t sleep after lunch.
At 7:30pm the dad drove me to the train station and i went back “home” to brussels.
The family slept over in a family apartement.
Tomorrow- day off. finally.
BOZAR
Finally I had time to visit the Brussels’ museum of contemporary art BOZAR. Jeff Wall. I truly loved it. There are even more things to look at, so I hope i find some time next weekend or till i leave.
Can you believe it? 3 weeks and I’m free. I hope it will pass very quickly.
