Yulina and I agreed on one ultimate thing during this trip: this restaurant's food was the best among all of the ones we went before this. Although it was the most expensive, the dishes from Bistro de Luxe was definitely unforgettable. We went there for breakfast, and we tried eggs benedict, which was amazing. Egg benedict is traditionally an American breakfast that consists of two halves of an English muffin that is each topped with bacon, a poached egg, and hollandaise sauce. We also tried the caramelised grapefruit, which is just pieces or chips of grapefruit covered in hardened caramel. Everything that came out of the kitchen was delicious, like the oatmeal, coffee, and other desserts. I'm really glad we stopped by just to compliment the appearance of the restaurant. Who knew the food would be just as awesome as how it looked?

Friday, December 25 Belarusian National Art Museum
It's Christmas, and I should really be thankful I'm in Belarus right now!! I honestly never saw such beautiful and creative Christmas decorations in my life! While we were on our way to the Belarusian National Art Museum, we saw huge sparkling ornaments in the park, and they were so cool! Thankfully, we were allowed to go inside and take pictures. I don't know how sad I would've been if we couldn't.
The National Art Museum of the Republic of Belarus is known to have the largest collection of works of art. More than twenty seven thousand works of art are in the museum and are separated into two main categories: national art and monuments of art of other countries and nations of the world. There collections were very diverse, and the pictures were interesting. Many of them were portraits and a lot of them were related to religion. There were also objects from the past like chess figures, household glassware, beads, and jewelry. The collections also include examples of weaving and embroidery in the seventeenth to early nineteenth century such as robes and chasubles made from fabric of Europe.

Saturday, December 26 QSI International School of Minsk
I didn't know these buildings turned out to be a school at first. I mean, look at them! They look like houses! But it was actually an international school. The schools are so clean and fancy, and even the inside looks cool.
Their education system says that most children start school at the age of six, and most of them keep learning until the age of eighteen when they finish high school. When they are fifteen, they have reached their basic level, and students who have successfully completed their education can attend college, or professional technical institutions that help them finish their high school education and let them work toward a professional certificate. Finishing high school or a professional certificate allows the student to learn at a university level.
From ages six to ten, children will go to primary school, from ten to fifteen, students will go to secondary school, from fifteen to eighteen, they will go to vocational school, and tertiary school is university. Their system seems a bit complicated...
