Europe Study Trip


For a long time I have wanted to visit Europe (who hasn't?), and although I had visited Paris briefly a couple years ago, I had not had a good look at many of the places I have grown up dreaming of.

This resulted in a two week quick trip last April. My wife and I went on a self directed study tour of many places that have significance to what we teach.

The first week was spent in England. The Tower of London was a must, and did not disappoint. My love for Richard III also meant a trip to Bosworth Field.

The Centre there was worth the trip, and I was amazed at the amount of research that has taken place into Richard's final days.
