J's class has been studying architecture and encouraging the families to seek out famous buildings in the area. She rattles off many facts about the Atomium that was built for the 1958 World's Fair. "It has some rooms that you can sleep in," she claims. "There are elevators to get up into each ball," is another of her facts.
"It can be either silver or blue," she says, "depending on the color of the sky." We also discovered today that it has a Belgian flag flying on the top ball.
After heading out of church this morning we found the Atomium and ate our lunch on a bench in full view of the site. Then we decided to stroll along some of the walking paths in the area. A favorite pasttime of many Belgians is walking through the footpaths. We found the amphitheater above that created quite a view of the Atomium.
R here is intrigued by the pick-up game of soccer in a local park during our walk. If you click on the picture, you can barely see a church in the background that we thought about walking toward, but somebody (even though they wouldn't admit it) was acting like they needed to go potty so we decided not to press our luck.
