So, where in the world is Alyssa Noel Markham? Brussels, Belgium! Congrats to [info]savage_penguin and [info]cereselle for their correct guesses!

Well folks, I’m both surprised and pleased to tell you that I made it to Brussels with absolutely zero incident. This is one of the first times I have ever had a trip go absolutely smoothly, even just one leg of it! The trip to London was dull, but I am proud to say I navigated the London underground without a hitch! The Eurostar was interesting for all of ten minutes before it got old (though the silence when we went under the water was pretty cool). I arrived in Brussels at 9:30PM and quickly arrived at my hostel. The first day of my trip is sadly uneventful as, after some lovely conversation with one of my hostel-mates, I went to sleep in my very squeaky bed.

The next day started early and after dressing I hurried down to the continental breakfast that, I kid you not, consisted of five pieces of bread, one slice of cheese, a bowl of corn flakes, a glass of juice, and a hot chocolate. The condiments included jam, butter, and chocolate frosting. I’m forced to agree with Lora, my hostel-mate, “When did chocolate frosting become a condiment?” And before you comment, no, it wasn't nutella, it was chocolate frosting.

With chocolate soaked bread warming my belly, I made my way out into the open (and freezing) air of Brussels.

Alright folks,

As some of you know I'm heading out on a whirlwind European tour tomorrow. I want to take this opportunity for all the people who want postcards to let me know here. If there's a particular region/area you'd prefer it from, I'll try and make it happen, but no promises. However, if you request a postcard, you will get one, I just can't promise it'll be from somewhere you specifically want.

So, comment with your address or, alternatively, email me at thatcrazedgirl at gmail dot com.

Otherwise, I'll be posting travel updates and pictures as I go (hopefully) and I'll have several new rounds of the postcard game while I'm on the road. So, adios until January my friends!

Alright folks, let's give this a shot. This game will consist of two locations, represented by one picture and three facts or key words each. I have four postcard total to give out (two for each location), so the first two right answers for each location will receive a card. Also, to make it a bit more fair, each person can only receive one postcard per game. You can guess on both locations, but if you get both right, I'm going to ask you choose between them. So, with that out of the way, here we go!

Location One:
