Brussels to where ?

        last night was a good night the bars and restaurants in brussels were packed and not just because the european football was on and Belgium had beaten Ireland 2-0 ,there is a lot of flags and people dressed up and painted for the football the Belgians are obviously very patriotic and big football fans .an speaking of which Cammy needed his football fix so we were i a famous bar called delirium , (http://www.deliriumvillage.com ) which was officially certificated by the guinness book of records as the bar with the most choices of beer commercially available with 2004 beers being available, there was over 30beers on tap ,the place was bouncing and it is spread along a busy alleyway where the bars spill out into the street , its a very cosmopolitan city brussels with all races of the world sharing beers along that wee street , its a shame its still in high alert from the recent terrorist attacks and there was also soldiers with automatic weapons patrolling the streets , we got a few beers and Cammy got to watch Austria v Portugal in the euros,i started out trying to order pints at the bar, then just asking for big beers and ended up just pointing and getting two beers as the staff were so busy that getting served involved mobbing the bar area , then we had a steak dinner at a nice restaurant not a bad night out

                    it was a much bigger decision than normal trying to decide where to go from brussels as it really determines where we are heading after tonight ( if that makes sense but west east or straight to our destination ) i wanted to go to Liechtenstein ,cammy had looked at it no nightlife and not through the alps on route to Zagreb .so we opted for Milan , we never booked a hotel like we normally do we just put Milan into the sat nav and headed off, i wanted to just drop of the room card and leave ,but i had totally forgot about city tax or tourist tax whichever way each country names it and brussels was 7 euros a night , cammy did the first leg of driving out of brussels and out toward Luxembourg we drove through Luxembourg to France in 15mins@ 11:30 and not far into France ,cammy got a flash from the speed camera he blamed the sat nav for not telling him there was cameras (but i couldn't moan as i got flashed later by another camera and may also have been snapped in Switzerland sorry bro ) .we hit our first toll road in France the first of two in France and two in Italy 20 euros i was in toll charges for todays drive

    we left France and entered Switzerland (after passing two Scottish touring bikers and the biggest group of bikers I've ever seen out on the road )at the city of basel which was cool .they never even looked at our passports even though they are not in the eurozone but they did demand 40 euros !!!! for vignette or car tax even though we were just driving through ,right after that we drove over the rhine and into a tunnel which was over into Germany then back into Switzerland ,which made total countries visited by us today was Belgium Luxembourg France Switzerland and Italy 6 ! the drive through Switzerland was awesome really beautiful through the alps , me and cammy are no strangers to the alps we ski there every year ,but the alps looked even nicer in summer and we found ourselves stopping to take photos and driving slower to enjoy the scenery ! yes today we were Sunday drivers , and it being fathers day i got a card also so maybe he will buy the first round tonight , we drive through so many long mountain tunnels it was impossible to count , 

      we arrived in Milan at 7pm and it was a mistake not booking a hotel before arriving , we wasted a lot of time driving around looking for the centre searching hotel options then eventually we chose a place called hotel canada and it had no parking , so the price should also include overnight at a city parking multi storey park another 20 euros for the night and 100 euros for our room ,a bit of time researching yesterday and we would have got hotel and parking for 60 half what we paid ! oh well lesson learned time to head out its a pleasant evening here in Milan and France and Switzerland are playing each other in the euros
