Sunday in Brussels

It's a 2 hours drive in the rain and 2 hours drive back in the rain again. We spent Sunday in Brussels today attending an openhouse at one of the embassy staff's house somewhere in the wooded Waterloo district. It has been raining all week and every time we look at the satellite photo there seems to be a giant cloud always lingering above the whole country. Its like we are in a big washing machine, washed, spinning and tumbling. Sometimes we feel like we are forever in the final spin

Anyway back to the openhouse, it's nice to see many Bruneian faces there and what a crowd. It is a more lively scene there with the presence of a large Asean diplomatic community.

The Ambassasor also hosted an openhouse the day before but we could not make it. But it was quite nice to see his excellency and his family today as well as all the other Bruneian families.
