Adiós Amigos!

Europe 2013.  It was a long journey - certainly longer than the last 19 days we spent together.  From its inception back in April 2012, it has been a work of joy for Mr. Johnson and myself.  We truly love sharing these experiences with our students and chaperones.  Good travel should be meaningful and joyous - these educational trips are planned with that in mind every step of the way. 

The kids were well cared for on this trip - we had an excellent group of chaperones!  Olga, Julie, Hassan, Andre, Susan, Leanne, Fred, Sharon, Janice, Leanne, Chris, Crystal, Mike, Jane, Vicki, and Patti - thank you for joining us and for supporting the students.  It was great getting to know you.

The kids were awesome - positive and fun, even through a few glitches (flight delays, missing luggage, injuries).  I enjoy teaching them in a different environment - no desks, notes, or books - just great stories (mostly true) "in situ" (look it up!).

And of course I must thank my friend Rens, who came out of his well-deserved retirement to drive us all over Europe again.  He's a great guy - I hope he drives us again!

All three of us, happy to have been at your service!
