The begining of the study tour:
Friends of Stockton Study Tour to Germany and Poland 2012: Please know that we are doing well. It is difficult for us to get access to the internet, or to text/call. Besides, it is very expensive to try to arrange internet or phone service while we are traveling. Please understand that this is the best place to keep tabs on what we are doing. Some of us are stressing a little because we are used to being in constant contact with you, which is not possible right now. We will post on this site regularly to let you know what we are doing. If there is a problem, we will contact you AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, but do not expect problems --- we're having fun and learning a lot even on the first day. The posts that follow are written by individual participants on the study tour.
