The long way home....
On Monday 6th August the removers arrived and over the next three days, dismantled and packed our belongings into a lorry and trailer.
The dining table went fairly early.
Jonah hung on to the computer as long as he could!
Our lovely neighbours, we will miss their friendliness.
Final, final goodbyes
Where we spent our last night in Bubenreuth...
...the car was sold, so we began our long trip home on foot to the train station. A final walk through our home village for the last 3 1/2 years. Happy memories.
Last walk past the school...
one of the supermarkets...
...to the train station.
Our first train was Bubenreuth to Nürnberg.
Then Nürnberg to Frankfurt.
Then onto Brussels in Belgium, where we stayed on Thursday night to break our journey.
On Friday we explored Brussels by underground train, beginning at the European Parliament in the Luxemburg area of the city.
We looked around the visitors centre of the European Parliament...
Not my best photos , but I like the idea!
...before walking through the city itself. A central park had a sculpture exhibition representing typical specialities of Belgium....
Then we sampled a couple of the local delicacies for real!
Our guitarist and drummer !
Of course we had to see this little man!
Then back to our trains...the Eurostar, one or the official partners of the London 2012 Olympic Games, that where happening at the time.
After crossing another border and travelling through France we arrived in London, which was hosting the Olympics.
