street signs: Well, in truth, my trip took a bit longer, according to Rabble. I got a bit lost -- not hopelessly, mind you, as I eventually got my bearings -- a fact that was driven home by the occasional changing of the street signs from "straats" to "rues", as I crossed and re-crossed an international frontier that bisected French and Belgian farmers' fields. In fact, the day of the Paris attack , I biked to Lijssenthoek Military Cemetery and Visitor Centre, not more than 15 minutes away. That day, the day of the Paris attack, I turned in early. I remained, then, for a few hours at least, blissfully unaware of the happenings in Paris. Even a France soccer match on TV and a beep that indicated a text message were not enough to convince me that staying up was more important than rest.
