Wednesday, January 25 I boarded United flight 950 out of Dulles International Airport. The flight was scheduled to leave at 5:59pm but was delayed because there was a problem the tire. It was easily fixed in about 10 minutes and we were on our way! The flight was around 7 hours long and we arrived in Brussels at 7:30am (1:30am US time). The group of JMU students took a 45 minuted bus ride to Antwerp, where we checked into our doors called "the Monty". We settled in and I met my roommate Laura. We went to lunch at the University of Antwerp where they served us salad and a sandwhich. From there we went to orientation and were given our Belgian cell phones. Mines red and white and it looks like its from 1900. We took a quick tour around the University and Antwerp in the rain... what fun. Finally we ate dinner at a nice resturaunt named Verona. It had a beautiful view of the cathedral.
