It's OK for you to drink "chick drinks", Lori...you ARE a chick, right? : ) Is the cherry beer anything like Sam Adams Cherry Wheat here in the states? And, I've never seen or had onion soup from a vending machine. Nice page.

Yet another Belgian story : you indeed have 3 different universities in this litlle town: UMH, FPMs, and Fucam. The FPMs is indeed what you call "Polytecnic Department", this is not part of UMH ;-) Too bad you have missed the "Doudou"...
