Brussells, Belgium

22-23 May - Kim and Jamie went to Brussells, Belgium with the girl scouts. Enroute, they toured the European Space Center. http://www.eurospacecenter.be/ It was alot of fun and they had a great time. Jamie was the first to be strapped in a gyroscope and spun around, sideways and upside down for about 45 sec. Great video!! They arrived in Brussells and had dinner.
Sunday they visited Mini-europe which is all the famous places in Europe in minature. www.minieurope.com/en/index.html. It is a really interesting place. It is alot like the place we went in Hamburg but bigger scale. Then they visited the Antomium http://www.atomium.be/ It is a large scale model of a atom of iron magnified 165 billion times :) You can travel in all the cells on escalators or steps. The elevator goes 47 feet/sec.
Then the girls came home.
