Brussels-Midi

Initially, our plan was to spend two nights in Nuremberg, Germany—departing from Brussels.  Due to snowy conditions, train cancellations and a mix-up with our train passes, K and I were the lucky couple to spend almost an entire day in the Brussels-Midi Train Station—probably one of the most depressing transportation hubs on the planet.  Low ceilings, bone-chilling cold temperatures, gray and black everything, crazy people yelling at vending machines and a fee (€0.50) to use the bathroom.  Needless to say, we never made it out of Brussels that day, but that’s the way it goes with winter travel…you just don’t know.
