即使事前並沒有做過功課要行那條路，但獨自上路乘電車可不是件難事
而因為我仍欠缺Rotterdam的明信片，在Kreenas的教路下我在CubeHouse那兒下車
竟被我巧遇那空地的星期二市集
不知為何，只行了一會兒我就那時突然有Hamburg趕火車事件重演的預感，立故刻快步行到電車站
而在市集裡和沿路那條街的舖頭都找不到明信片的出現也就放棄了
到了電車站等了十分鐘才有車，但一路卻懷疑之前到站的電車也能到火車站
至今仍然相信，不過當時當然不敢搏，反正有個最穩陣的方法
往Brussels那程火車風光很明媚，有多款不同的動物看，就似在動物園裡的列車般
而在臨近Brussels Nord之時，我又看到WindowProstitutes，乍看之下是比較年青的
很奇怪，對著火車站當街當巷有此服務，還是那兒已是紅燈區的範圍？
順帶一提，本來在Central站下車的，因為不知道火車會駛經Nord站
但隱約記得Hostel資料話Nord下車會比較近，故突然有那決定提早下車
下車後，天氣仍很好，我亦彷彿重回商業高樓大廈之中
可惜不久之後我便迷了路，完全跟不了自己印出來的Hostel地圖和指示
我初時是完全地行了個錯的方向，問了人後給糾正了又再迷失了
之後入了間類似是政府大樓的物體問接待處，那些女職員幫我打電話問，但無人聽
佢話我知間Hostel可能已執了，但好彩聽過Kreenas話無耐之前佢住過
我又記得Hostel話有段時間會無人幫手Check-in才沒有淆底
後來另一女職員又加入幫忙，好們又睇本大地圖又叫人幫手
更有位男士特登帶我到外面指個方位給我看，十分好
但奇怪我到Hostel接待處仍未關，都不知為何沒有人聽電話
無論如何，我都是先放下行李再順條大直路去玩
1. Stock Exchange
2. Grand Palace
3. Manneken Pis
4. Parking 58
5. Pee Against the Church
我出發不久後便開始下雨了，絕對的掃興
而一路行一路行，我發覺那兒有很多室內室外的書報攤
我當然佔盡便宜到其中一間室內的大型書報社隨意揭揭雜誌
之後在那被譽為全歐洲最美麗的大廣場中好像有個活動要搭場
有很多凳，所以我覺得似開演唱會，但對旅客來說極不便，行也行不了
我只在那裡的CityMuseum行了行，但我真的並非文化人
除了看小童尿尿像的衫之外一點都不吸引，只管衡量走與浪費金錢的取捨
再隨著古舊路牌行便到了那細小的小童像
竟然會放在小路的轉彎位，與及在中國人開的朱古力店旁，一點都不起眼
看著這最比利時的地標，雨亦越下越大
唯有在附近很多人買的窩夫舖邊吃邊避雨
我叫了個最貴的，又有Cream又有士多啤梨，而最正的是那甜甜的餅底
雨好像不會停，我也只有冒著雨周圍行
根據地圖的提供，我去了之前看不到任何介紹的Parking58天台一看Brussels市
那裡周圍都是雨水，又沒有人，我真的好想去一去廁所，但我忍！
再到旁邊有個小位置給人們對著外牆小便的教堂
但因為看似不尊重又沒水洗手，我再忍！最後決定先回Hostel再乘車去AtomicTower
在CommonRoom坐了一坐，就小睡了一會，醒了之後覺得人有不妥，發冷的樣子
掙扎了很久，雖然不想放棄AtomicTower，但又怕捱不到和會影響之後的行程
結果我只在Brussels行了三小時，但睡了十五小時到翌日清早才摸黑上廁所
亦幸好我隨身攜帶了退消藥才能將其辛苦程度降低
雖然涼又沒有沖又因發燒出了點汗，但身上都沒有甚麼味道
我更加覺得，有太陽的旅行才是完美的
Brussels很有新舊交融這特質
火車站那邊很摩登，但古蹟那邊則很有夜上海的樣子
亦有很多畫得很靚的漫畫在牆上，顯然和急畫的塗鴉有別
我的Hostel亦很奇妙，就像是個迷宮般
要經過接待處旁的CommonRoom才能達至我的房間
如果接待處關閉，如夜晚和午飯時間，就先要上樓上兜個圈才到
