So after realizing that the crash in Belgium has essentially cancelled all trains for the day and potentially tomorrow, I figured it’s best (and safest) for me to just go back to London from Paris. I didn’t want to risk my life since the international trains use that same railway where the crash that killed 20+ occurred. Thankfully I was able to get a full refund on my Paris-Brussels ticket and an exchange from my Wednesday Brussels-London return ticket to a Paris-London ticket for this afternoon. I also decided to buy some Belgian chocolate at the station since I didn’t get to go to Brussels (I really think my only purpose in going was for the chocolate). Boarded the train and collapsed into some deep sleep for most of the ride…it was great. Now I’m back in my room, safe and sound, about to grab some dinner and figure out what to do for the rest of the week. I guess this was a blessing in disguise because I got to save a lot of money and I get to explore a lot of London that I wasn’t able to because of my classes. Will upload pictures tonight :)
