Hey kids, welcome back to the Blog. As we made our way into downtown Antwerp we were able to meet up with Dale and Gary Rossington, as well as Mary Rossington. We started off our day eating breakfast and catching up with the family at the Hotel De Lille, where everyone else was staying. After breakfast we started adventuring around town, starting with a Music museum. This place showed how people in Belgium made church bells, and what people did with the music in the past, like dancing.

As we moved through town we decided to head into a church which was called Cathedral Of Our Lady. This church was beautiful, there was a lot of art there and it told many stories of the religion in Belgium.

After walking around the music museum and exploring the church we were a little hungry, so we headed to Bubble Waffle!!! Enjoying the classic Belgian waffle we were all looking for.

After our fun day of exploration, it was time to head to our first soccer game, USA vs. Sweden in La Harve. We made the commute to the game, which was 4 hours. This experience was very cool. Even though we had been to USA games before, we had never been to a World Cup game which made this game more exciting to all of us.
