We met while touring Europe in 1997. Since then, Pat and Phil came to America twice to visit us, first in 2002 and then again in 2010. In between, the four of us have toured the south of England together in 2008. Then in 2012 we flew to Adelaide and toured southeastern Australia and New Zealand with them. Now once again we come together, this time in Edinburgh, to do Scotland, Wales and Ireland.

Comparing Notes

After everyone left, we finished off another small pizza, washed down with wine, and chatted about the differences and similarities in education systems. Pat taught sixth grade and sometimes a combination of sixth and seventh in the public schools before she retired. Phil was a librarian in a private elementary school but had also been a principal prior to that.
