July 29-Study day

Last night's Sing-Along concert in the Oude Market was so much fun.  There were about 3,000 of us crowded in to the square, singing at the top of our lungs!  The sing-along concert series travels throughout Flanders.  They handed out small newspapers with the words to the songs.  We sang Deliah, Hey Baby, Hey Jude, La Bamba, and a few Dutch and French songs, just to name a few!  Sounds kind of lame but we had a great time.

Today I slept in until about 9:30 then studied for a few hours around the house.  This afternoon, me, Jonathon, Walter, Dr. Muster, and Dr. Engler went for a bike ride around Leuven.  There are miles and miles of nice, well marked trails around the forest outside the city of Leuven.  We visited a chapel and a military graveyard, etc.  After about 2 hours of biking, Dr. Munster invited us over to his apartment for drinks.

We dropped off our bikes back at the student house then went to find somewhere to eat dinner.  We ended up walking for about an hour because nothing was open and/or it was Italian, which we're tired of!  We ended up near the train station and then it started raining.  We ran in the rain to a fast-food type place, called Quick.  I had a really good salad there and we waited out the storm.

I skyped with Mom tonight and got caught up on everything that's been happening at home.  It's after midnight now so I'm going to bed soon.
