A visit to 3 cities

Today was a busy and long day. We visited Eupen, Trois Bornes and Henri Chapelle.

However, while busy there is not too much to write about.

First we visited Eupen, home to the chocolate factory called Jacques.  We learned about how chocolate was made, but more importantly we had the opportunity to buy chocolate!!! Yum!! Belgium chocolate really is fantastic. However, after only be there for an hour and a half my senses were so overwhelmed by chocolate that I no longer craved it. Here is a picture of the factory though. It was amazing all the technology that is used to build chocolate. In one day they create 40 tons of chocolate! That is absolutely ridiculous!!

Trois Bornes is just what it sounds. It is where three borders meet: Germany, Belgium, and Netherlands. Right here you can be in 3 countries at one time!!! It is similar to the 4 Corners in the United States.

Lastly, we visited Henri Chapelle. It is an American cemetery, and the largest US cemetery in Belgium with close to 8,000 graves for American WWII soldiers.
