I love to travel. One of the things I like best about homeschooling is the opportunity is that we can take vacations at off-times (and not have to go during the summer when everyone else is vacationing). I'm fortuntate to have grown up in Maryland - not far from Washington, DC - and since we still have family in the area, we can take our children to see much of our nation's historical monuments there from time to time. But I want them to be able to see Boston, Philadelphia, and many other places where history was made! I would love to take them to Greece, Rome, Egypt and some of the world's other great historical sites.

So am I one of the few travel nuts out there, or are there others who dream crazy dreams like I do? What would you consider an awesome homeschool field trip?
