I’ll be out of pocket today and tomorrow thanks to dentist visits. I’ll try to contain my enthusiasm.

We’re off to Belgium today to visit La Grand Place which is the central square of Brussels. They probably sell sprouts somewhere around there. Or maybe not. The square is surrounded by guildhalls (those are still a thing?), the city’s Town Hall, And the Breadhouse. Disappointingly, there’s no bread house there now. it’s a fancy schmancy ducal palace built on the site of the bread market. Every two years a huge flower “carpet” is spread out in the square. At any rate there are lots of gothic buildings to explore.
This was apparently a slow day in history. I couldn’t find anything that interested me. 
On TV tonight: the two-hour season finale of Alcatraz (already????) and Castle
Reading: This, that and the other.

Sorry to be so scarce this week. I’m just not feeling very motivated. Hopefully I’ll get my butt in gear soon.
