While we really enjoyed all of the places we visited (each stop would have been worhty of the trip on their own), we have been asked about favorites. There were so many great things we did and, more importantly, great people we got to meet and see again. But I have a habit of asking often what highlights the kids remember -- for my interest as well as to help them be in a habit of reflecting. These are the most-recalled:
