This had nothing to do with your post, but I need advice! Jordin has been asked to address a space elevator conference in Luxembourg next month. We're flying into and out of Brussels, staying over night there. We arrive earlyish on Dec 3 and have that day and most of the 4th to sight see. We have to be in Luxembourg Friday evening, which I understand is a short train ride. So far we've identified the Magritte museum, the cocoa museum, and the Christmas market as things we want to see. What else would you recommend? A really nice restaurant where I can get good Belgian food and Jordin can get something bland and characterless. (a steak, a hamburger, some very plain chicken.) Any and all comments and suggestions gladly entertained. We'll be in Luxembourg Friday evening thru Sunday evening. I'm not sure about Monday; we fly out of Brussels Tuesday afternoon. Thanks!
