Lowell Observatory At Flagstaff Arizona

Lowell Observatory Flagstaff Arizona We discover that places like Lowell Observatory are perfect for an alternative form of schooling – here’s why, because, today was a pretty bad day for me. I kind of hit rock bottom. It is past the three-month mark and just went flat. I had all my washing done by hand and […]

Pearl Harbor With Kids – World Schooling

Pearl Harbor With Kids – World Schooling We arrive in Honolulu and have booked accommodation through Craigslist. It is a high-rise building on the 36th floor with a mid-way glass balcony, which instantly makes me nervous!   In hindsight, I would not do this again because it is not up to our standard, and this is […]
