Drowning Out the Windowside


Sadness. Bad castle connection equates to me losing an entire post. Way too lazy to write that whole thing again, so here is the abridged version, void of any poetry and clever anecdotes.

We stopped on the way to Bruges to a town called Gent. We were looking at a painting that we were lectured on earlier in the week (Jan van Eyck's "The Adoration of the Mystic Lamb"). The St. Bova Cathedral it was in was gorgeous. To hear about a painting, go and actually stand two feet away from it and get lectured from European professors is sort of surreal. Again (Halie), I feel like freaking Harry Potter. So cool. The paintings themselves make me want to never doodle again... it's unbelievable what artists can make. This cathedral was so gorgeous (Mom, I kept wishing you were here to see it with me).

Much more to say about Belgium but I'll post it later.

Love to all :)
