In the summer, our family tries, whenever possible, to help our children learn about the world around them.
This year we decided to take a trip to Morocco to visit the desert and the Imperial Cities.
It turned out to be not only a trip, but particularly a humanly enriching experience for our children, visiting a country completely different from the western world and seeing firsthand the real day to day life of the Moroccan people.
