Sometimes you've just got to do it. We did! Took the kids out of school Flew to America Bought a coach and started an amazing travel adventure. We took more money out of a US Embassy than we went in with. We dealt with a sleazy car salesman. Armed men boarded our coach. We crossed the hoover dam. We met alligators and rubber eating vultures. Drove 50 miles with our tyres on fire, ¿Wrote short stories to keep the kids happy on the road. and so much more. Home schooling was a breeze after that.
