Glenn and Tina's yard was absolutely gorgeous. We spent quite a bit of time out on the patio. I don't think we ate a single meal inside while we were there.
After an 8 hour flight with minimal sleeping involved I was a little fatigued but determined to stay up and get on a Belgium-friendly schedule as soon as possible. We drove about 20 minutes away to Villers Abbey.
The abbey was built in the 1100's and abandoned in the 1700's. I thought it was in remarkable condition. It was fascinating to me to see a building that was close to 900 years old. The architecture was beautiful. I can only imagine what this building looked like during its prime.
The area was beautifully landscaped. The gardens added another layer of beauty to this place.
We enjoyed a tasty dinner courtesy of Tina, went to bed at a normal time, and got ready for our next adventure.
