OBERWEYER, GERMANY: March 31 to April 3

12 days into the European Grand Prix Tour 2012 and we've already been to so many places and have had the privilege to experience so many wonderful things - the unique food, the breath-taking sights and the heart-warming hospitality of our hosts, to name a few.

Here's a glimpse of what the ACGC experiences in its first stop: Oberweyer, Germany; a small, peaceful town in Hessen where the GC was hosted last year as well.
