Wow, well I can’t believe we are at the two week mark for this trip (actually, we’re just under that now…yikes!) I have pretty well completed all of the purchases needed for this trip — wardrobe, adapter plugs, and travel items. Getting ready to teach the pre-trip information next week — looking forward to getting to know my travel companions. First we’ll explore the differences in general philosophies of Eastern and Western ideologies, then utilize some discussion on Confucianism, Taoism, and Islam to see how these philosophies manifest. Should be fun.<\/p>\n

Hope all of you are ready for a great learning experience. Rest now — Italy sounds like it will be packed with things to do and learn!<\/p>\n
