One of the most cool and unique aspects of touring the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico is the abundance of Mayan ruins.

I spent several […]
A while ago we wrote an article and shared our thoughts about whether or not we would be homeschooling the kids or enrolling them in conventional public school. With all of the travel that we do we weren’t exactly sure where we would land and if we would just scale back so the kids could […]

Before we got to Florida, we’d built it up a bit to our kids. You know, it’s all pirates and alligators everywhere. With that, we also told a few lies… like there are pirate forts and you can find treasure on the beach. Well, that built up the excitement even though we lost a little […]
