PROMPT September 23rd

Today’s prompt is from Eric Wharton Author Icon!

If you won a free trip to any foreign country, all expenses paid in your own private jet, and had the time, where would you go?


Ooooh, this one's easy! Mars.

Wait, country, not planet. Damn.

Still easy. Belgium.

Go here and take a look at the Belgian flag: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/65/Flag_of_Belgium.svg/20...

Ever wonder what the colors represented? I finally figured it out: Chocolate, Beer, and Waffles. You know, the three things Belgium is most known for. And they're all delicious.

Essentials aside, it just looks like a great place to visit. The only downside is the country can't figure out what language it wants to speak. There's no such thing as "Belgian," so half the country speaks French and the other half speaks Dutch. Pretty sure "beer" is pronounced "beer" in both languages, though, so I'll be okay.

Well, free trip or not, I'm planning to go there sometime in the next couple of years. I'm just not sure I'll want to come back afterwards.
