I will write more when I can fully wrap my head around the actual events of this trip, but in the meantime I just want to say THANK YOU!! to everyone who made this adventure possible. Special thanks to Scully, who since February had been painstakingly creating an itinerary that included both education and fun. My brothers, Chris and Philip, made this trip a true family affair, and there is no one I would have rather traveled with for such a long period of time. Our friend Lindsay wore many hats on this trip, but above all her friendship has been a most important factor of guidance and stability in my life. Of course, this trip would not have been possible without the original invitation from Marcell Trioen, a fabulous Belgian performer/singer/songwriter/blues guitar extraordinaire and all around great man, and his girlfriend, Connie. Together they made my whole family and I feel like a part of their family, and for this we are forever indebted to them. Pat Kelly was, as usual, another source of friendship, guidance, and fun, and he, as usual, was instrumental in allowing me to get my music out to the far reaches (for me, anyway) of Europe. Perhaps as a shining example of how happy we all felt at the end of this excursion to Belgium, I have to thank our good friend Benoit. By the end of it all we were exhausted and ready to go home, but somehow Benoit and his friends had us believing that we were already home, and had no reason to be leaving so soon. The whole experience has been surreal, unimaginable, and beyond my wildest dreams. Thanks so much to everyone for making me feel so special, and finally being able to understand the meaning of some good family and friends. Love Jules
