Planning a trip

Imagine that we are planning a trip to the Middle East for one week. The object is to learn as much about the people and cultures, as well as the politics, of the region. Your mission is to plan an itinerary that gets us the most bang for the buck. Remember to take into account all the real limitations that may arise, such as dangers to foreigners or religious restrictions. List your itinerary in the blog. Explain why you picked the places you chose. A visual presentation will be given by all students the week after Feb. vacation. Below is just one of many websites available to help you get started.
