Belgium - Antwerp: drinking beer

Hi Mom and Luna,

Tonight we went out for a drink or 2,3,4,5,6,...
Hostmom Cin doen't like the tast of beer, but she promissed Mister J she would drink a beer.
She ordered the most sweetest beer they got. 
A "Kriek Lindemans" Beer of cherries


It smells like ... euh cherries!!! :)



Next is the mango-beer: it is served in a very special glass..
it isn't a glass at all!!
It has no smell and it looks like foaming milk. 

tasting:  mmmmm it is ok!
But is looks funny drinking this stuff.

Another "Kriek"  

time flies .... and we were drunk.  
Hostmom Cin saw smileys everywhere, even in her beer.
Do you see it?  The BIG smile?

we had fun, drinking beer!
but our tummy went on stike. 
straight to bed!

ooooohhhhhhhh
zzzzzzzzzztella
