A rest day
Today bini and I woke up at 8, had breakfast supplied by the hostel and then went to do our washing. We found really nice wasbar. Which is pretty much a cafe combined with a laundromat. Here we did our washing and had Tomato soup for lunch. It wasn't cheap but was nice.
We also had a hot chocolate while we waited. Sadly we don't quite understand laundromats at the moment and the dryer we had been watching got used just before our washing finished and for the next dryer we would have to wait 45 minutes. So instead we walked up to the another laundromats and did our drying there.
After this we went home and had a little rest and then went on a self guided tour around Ghent (found in the tourist info and recommended by dad). This was nice. Ghent is a really nice place to stay and has a very happy friendly feel about it.
Next we went to the Turkish Street of town where all the cheap food was meant to be. We ended up finding a nice Turkish restaurant where we had a tasting plate to share which had 2 lamb cutlets, 2 Turkish sausages, BBQ chicken breast, rice with some kind of sauce, chips which Alastair ate and baked potato which bini ate.
We were still a little hungry after this and got a waffle to share from a street food place. We then went home and enjoyed the free WiFi..... And I forgot to finish the blog hence it's a day late......... Sorry :s
Glad your enjoying Ghent and have sampled the traditional waffle! We are enjoying the blog. Love Mum
