It looks like a cool change may be in the air. Hopefully you can sleep more easily tonight. They have bubble water on tap here at work, but I still can't understand the addiction. Lydia´s last blog post..Tranquil isolation and optimism in a pure world

Ah, “La Canicule”! I hope it doesn’t last too long, Belgium definitely isn’t made for hot weather… I managed to avoid most of the horrible Canicule in 2003, but did return in time to catch the worst week of it, what a nightmare!

So good luck, and keep lots of cold drinks in the fridge!

PS: I introduced myself in your first “moving to Belgium” post but I’m not sure if it got posted properly…

Bubble water is just carbonated water – like Perrier. It has a different taste than water, and the bubbles make it feel a little fancier. :)

Explain what the bubble water is. I’ve never heard of it, but your friends obviously have. Have I been in a cubicle too long, or is it just not in Raleigh?

I noticed that this seems to be why Europeans go swimming in every drop of moving water i saw - ponds, lakes, rivers, everywhere filled with swimming people all summer. i'm totally a gas water convert. yum. becca´s last blog post..Tired.
