It's always sad when it comes time to write the final post of a trip. Although this is only the first of two big trips this year, the idea of flying home tomorrow seems far too soon. But enough of that we had one final day here in Brussels and we were going to enjoy it. Our enjoyment began after waking up a little after 10 AM and lazily getting out of bed. 

After a beautiful first day in Brussels yesterday we woke up today to rain, and a lot of it. That was OK because we didn't even start getting out of bed until 11 AM. The very busy four days in Paris caught up to us, so it was nice to lay in bed and relax. Jenn slept in a lot later than I did, so I played some Mario Kart and caught up on the news waiting for her to wake up. Once Jenn was up and straightening her hair I walked across the street to a small coffee shop called OR Espresso Bar which had one of the best (and smallest) cappuccino's I've ever had,

It's the worst day of any trip that involves Paris. It's the day I have to say goodbye to my favorite city in the world. But enough about that, we still had a couple more hours together. Because we had a train leaving a little after noon we got a surprisingly early start to the day. We met my siblings and Ryan at one of our favorite eateries in all of Paris, Angelina's. Jenn hasn't stopped talking about their amazing hot chocolate since our first visit many years ago and our return visit didn't disappoint.

After getting back to our hotel room sometime after 1 AM this morning, Jenn and I slept in as late as we possibly could. Yesterday was absolutely incredible but today we had another jam-packed day ahead of us. We woke up a little before 10 AM and grabbed an Uber at 10:30 AM to take us to the Anvers subway station (we were running late again) to meet up with my siblings for a Parisian food tour.

At 1 AM a couple of months back Jenn and I had planned to buy tickets to Roland Garros for one day. But then once we had purchased for Monday, Jenn spent ten seconds to convince me to buy a second day. And after today, I'm so glad she did. We woke up at around 9 AM and got ready a little before 11 AM to head back out to Roland Garros. 

If I was to describe to someone my perfect day, today would probably be it. It had Jenn, Paris, tennis, French food, and French wine. But I'm getting ahead of myself lets start at the beginning. Today marked the first day of two in which Jenn and I were going to Roland Garros. We had grand plans originally. We were going to wake up, have an early breakfast, and take the subway down to Roland Garros.
