Easter in Holland - Monday



On Monday, we headed home via Belgium, but not without a tour of the dairy farm. It was very interesting to see how the farm operates. Noah loved the cows and the horses (see pics below).


We didn't stop in Brussels on the way home (it was too far south for us.) But we did stop in this little town looking for some waffles for lunch. First off, it was Easter Monday and pretty much nothing was open. The only thing we found was this little restaurant in a trailer. I have never had anything like what we had there and I hope you never have to...

When you walk in there is this large display case with a bunch of what I now know was frozen food. Then behind the counter there were about four vats of oil. They spoke Flemish there, so we struggled to figure out what to order. We saw Cajun Chicken on a stick. We figured that was a safe bet, so we ordered two and an order of fries. They grabbed our chicken sticks and dunked them in the oil. As our food cooked we watched as other customers ordered. Every order from bread on a stick to wurst (hot dogs) met its fate in the vat of hardened arteries.

We don't really remember much after that because we were pretty freaked out about the amount of fat we were consuming...
