I had my day planned for today...at least there was something certained...I was planning to meet Cali in front of the Stadhuis around 11am..Before I waited in front of the Stadhuis, Agoes and I went to get a cup of coffee at Mokamore!...cute name huh!
A few minutes after 11am, I was surprised when I saw Cali riding a bycicle around the city, especially when I knew that students don't have to pay anything for public transport [in this case a bus!]..but still Cali and his wife, Astrid, ride their bikes everyday....quite impressive!! I also heard from him that in Leuven you can't give anybody a ride on your bike..if you do, the police will have to arrest you!!!...hmmm..that's strange but yet funny also...
After we said our hellos, we went inside the KUL's library...and it was amazing.!!! I have never seen such great library...it was just like in the movies...!!..Incredible!!!
After that visit, we went on a bus to go to Arenberg Castle, which is the first KUL campus building...it is outside the cityring..for me, who isn't a student, the ride costed me 1euro...
At the Arenberg Castle, we made some picture together which I intent to show it off to Maureza..:p..and they took me for a tour around the campus...there were a lot of gardens inside it..I like gardens...after that we ate lunch at the student cafeteria named ALMA...They said that the food are disgusting..but I was lucky..that day my food was quite nice..at least ateable..hahaha...
After we ate our lunch, we walked to the centrum..which was not that far afterall...unfortunately the weather wasn't too friendly that day, so when we entered the centrum, it began to rain..so we stucked in a bookstore for about an hour...after that we decided to end the day by walking me to the hotel in the rain.....thanks guys!!!
Due to walking in the rain, that night I got another fever...oooo...how painful..

As I saw the sun shone, I instantly decided to go to Brugge up north of Belgium...so I went to the train station and bought myself another b-dagtrips to Brugge and a ticket to Diamant Museum and Volks Museum plus a voucher to drink at some cafe...
The journey to Brugge takes about 2 hours and I was lucky because the train was like the German's train...it wasn't shabby.....so..I got to have some nap on the train...
When I arrived there, it was already a little bit after noon..so I quickly went to the Diamant Museum..it was quite good...but that's all I could go to.. so I wasted my other ticket to the Volks Museum and the voucher...but it's ok 'coz the city itself was breathtaking!!!!...I loved it there...I took a lot of picture until I got a warning on my digic that the memory card was error...Oh my God!!...But I remembered that Agoes told me that the pics won't get lost but I couldn't take anymore pic with that memory card...Fortunately I packed another memory card...it has saved the day!!!...
After walking around for a few hours in the city, I went back to Leuven in the afternoon 'coz I promised to meet Agoes that we'll have dinner together...
We had dinner at a restaurant called Quasimodo...and the food were delicious!!! I had a big trout fish!!!...I was full on our last day of the trip to Leuven!!!...:p
