Good for Will. Nice that Levi and Will will be close to one another (I didnt get a chance to go...but Luxembourg is TINY).

 

Even better, Belgium is a small country as well...and Levi, Will, and Jamar will be able to catch up because of the proximity (Luxembourg is like a suburb of Belgium and is a former part of Belgium) to one another.

 

These guys are also in a perfect "start" point for the cultural side of life: Paris is about an 1 1/2, Amsterdam the same, Ghent and Antwerp are short hops...and one of my favorite cities to viist for a short jaunt...Brugges...is right up the road. England is a ferry ride away (Brugges to Dover), and Berlin is I think about 4 hours.

 

Great spot for these guys. Enjoy your life fellas!
