Response to Michael

For some reason the blog won't let me directly comment to people so I'm doing it this way...

What was your favorite part of the trip? For me it was Delphi, I think it was a mixture of the surroundings as well as the immersion into the past by way to seeing the temple area and the museum. I am amazed that so much of our culture has come from the time period that we studied and yet many of the similarities I never picked up on. You spoke alot about your dyslexia, do you think that the originial schools of thought with Socrates and Plato, ect., were better suited to teach people of all learning types and backgrounds. or do you believe that the school systems that are in place now are more sucessful in teaching? It was a blast getting to know you, I hope that we can do another travel studies again!
