MISSED CONNECTIONS: The lack of cell-phone and internet service in parts of Yellowstone made us feel more out of touch than we had in remote parts of China a year earlier. SPRING BREAK: The Arab Spring happened right before a big family trip to Egypt. When President Hosni Mubarak stepped town, we took a leap of faith to go ahead. We had the place to ourselves, basically-the pyramids, the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, a sail down the Nile. We also witnessed an electrifying chapter in the country’s evolution. LEARNING CURVE: When the boys were 12 and 10 we decided to home-school and travel for a while, in South America, Africa, Europe and the Mediterranean, China, and Japan. As they’ve gotten older ,we’ve included them in trip problem-solving and decision-making so they feel they have a voice and learn how to travel efficiently.
