LIZ SAYS: Dick went to the race, Francorchamps 24 hour race. I hung out at the hotel,a Radisson with a real spa! My job was to study French and get a treatment or two. I was in pain from the horrible cobbles of Brussels.
Spa was a sleepy little place but it is the origin for the word and evidently the idea of Spa.The treatments were wonderful, the hotel was full of racing enthusiasts and race workers, of some sort or another. So, it was empty in the daytime. The weather was fickle and cold most of the time, so it was easy to stay in.
When Dick got back, we did ride the funicular, which is pretty nice and goes to the towns water sources, with fountains and pools. Nice.[Dick says: Dick also drank from the Reine spring at Spa. He no longer has epilepsy--or whatever it's suppose to
cure.]
