Europe Days 29- ::Edited June 30

Day 29
Antwerp. Caught an expensive train from Rouen to paris, then to brussels then to antwerp. Walked a decent distance to the hostel, but we had a map from a nice tourist office, so it went easily. Antwerp is the diamond capitol of europe and also has a good number of jewish communities. It must be a hair stylist's nightmare for sure since most of the guys seemed to have the same partly shaved head haircut. Fun to see anyway. We walked around town a bit, hit up some stores then went to bed. Our hostel is one of those 12 beds in a room ones, but we lucked out with having only a few people in there.
Since its belgium people smoke everywhere, and our hostel's kitchen and main room were just filled with smoke making us not want to stay down there. But the room was decent.

Day 30
Antwerp. Went to the zoo!! Saw Penguins!
