I'm a fickle fellow. My family is thinking of adding a France and Belgium leg to our England vacation next May. I'm currently reading this website:
http://www.visitbelgium.com/
Under "Dress Codes & Drinking Age", it says, It is best to contact the establishment you want to visit for specific dress codes. As a general rule, sneakers are not permitted and in some place jeans are not permitted either. For best results dress Smart Casual.
The drinking age in Belgium is 18.
WTF?!?!?!?! Athletic shoes and jeans are all I friggin' have. I HATE dressing up. Okay, I can probably get away with my summer cargo shorts which I love, but how hot does it really get in Belgium? I mean, we're gonna be in England and perhaps Scotland for two weeks... I KNOW the weather in England (my homeland) and probably won't be packing my cargo shorts.

No mention of strip clubs, or metal shows, or anything else a 21-year-old dude like me would love when he turns 22 next year. Gambling is okay.
Okay, I like shopping... I'm a friggin' girl. Correction... I like BROWSING and WINDOW SHOPPING but I'm quite conservative with my money, a financially-conservative girl who looks like a 21-year-old dude who wants to see strip clubs and metal shows. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Music stores? Musical instrument shops? No mention of those either. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
Sure, castles, buildings, historical places, and sightseeing tours are okay, but only for so long. There's plenty of mention of nightclubs and alcohol, but neither of those things appeal to me. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
We're going to be in England for family. Things are generally expensive there, so I'll hold out. Scotland is still on the "maybe" list, and I'm sure there's plenty of cool things to do there too. Paris is friggin' Paris. But Belgium I'm unsure about.
What I do know is that I will be buying a whole suitecasefull of Belgian chocolates. [img]/images/graemlins/drool2.gif[/img] But what else is there? And what will it cost me? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
