Day 12 we woke up after a deep sleep and made our way down to the hostel breakfast. It was a very special day because it was trip leader Oscar Wilmerding’s birthday. After breakfast we quickly got ready and went exploring though the city of Ghent. We started by navigating the local book and flower markets. We then headed to one of the many canals in gent and went on the famous 9$ canal tour through gent. Then, we ran to our augmented reality reservation in “Sint Bravo’s Cathedral”. It told the story of the cathedral and it’s most famous painting: The Mystic Lamb. We then went and got Belgian chocolates and groceries and went back to the hostel for a quick nap. After a dinner of chicken, rice, and bean burritos, we walked through an alley designated for graffiti and played cards in the town square. After conversing with locals in the hostel lobby, we went to bed.
