Return to work

This past summer I wanted to get better using the really fancy stuff to keep people entertained, but instead I entertained myself while traveling. Between the wonderful Mermaid in Warsaw and the Dragon in Krakow there were sights observed that will not be repeated in the halls of my school. However, those halls will be full of excited little 9th graders who will be more inventive than we wish they would be.

During the next 9 months, Born to Travel is going to be traveling the world through the W. Geography curriculum tying in the places that I have toured in my last 55 years. There are more years of exploration left in me, but these previous tales of travel need to be recorded before I do additional ones.

The general agenda is to make connections to real places I have been to all lessons that I have created this year. Daily entries are hoped for, but I will settle for weekly entries.

Happy reading.
