Hey... well yesterday we had the day off so we spent most of the day relaxing.  We have group projects today in our intercultural communications class so in the afternoon our group met to plan out our project.  Yesterday was a holiday to celebrate Pentecost (which is intriguing to have a religious holiday like that in such a secular country) and as such most stores except of course bars and coffee shops were closed.  We eventually found our way to McDonalds for lunch after trying endlessly to find a local place.  For dinner we hit up Nora's our favorite kebap and pizza place.  We have class today through thursday before heading on a class trip to the EU headquarters in Brussels on Friday.  It should be very interesting to see all the EU buildings because of the wide influence of the EU in our everyday lives while visiting Europe.
