Segways, Maastricht

Spotted these Segways for hire outside the Maastricht train station bicycle rental place. If you have 50 Euros to burn they're yours for two hours of sightseeing fun. I thought the Segway on the right with the extra wide tires looked quite cool, but can't imagine what you'd need them for.

After meeting our builder friend in Maastricht we spent the entire day in Aachen ordering building materials for work he'll be doing on our roof and terrace. This is a task I don't enjoy at best, but doing it in a mixture of German, English and sign language was a challenge requiring a certain amount of patience and humour. Then there was the drive back home to Belgium to unload everything and cook dinner for 4 starving people. I'm still so exhausted from yesterday that this morning at breakfast I couldn't remember the word for toaster. I think I might have called it a lobster.


This is a backblip.


p.s. Doing errands in 3 countries in one day is not unusual if you live only an hour from Holland or Germany.
