“I just wanted to offer my sincere thanks to you all for
providing what I know is Graham's most enriching and
memorable experience of his high school career.   I am
sure the trip will remain one of his most unforgettable
lifetime experiences as well.
 
We traveled with you all vicariously as we followed the
blog posts, tweets, photos and videos.  What wonderful
tools these were and what wonderful places you visited
and experienced.
 
Thank you again for your willingness to travel abroad with
20 teenagers (not something most of us would undertake). 
I hope you all have a wonderful summer.”
