Owen,
I applaud your choices! I am currently studying Greek & Roman History and it is sooooo cool! May I recommend a couple of dvds to you? Cody & I discovered these dvds from the History Channel at our local Burbank Library. They are called Ancient Battles and they use video game technology to re-enact famous battles from history, especially the Greeks and Romans. You may find some sites of famous battles you want to visit.
Aloha, Nicole Thibadeaux.
Owen, I want you to plan my next trip - you and I have much, much in common when it comes to what places we find appealing, and why. One day it's going to be great fun to come here and read your posts on how great your trips to these places were...and why! Very much looking forward to that. Have a great time!
Owen, check out Cyprus in Greece. It is a small island divided between Turkey and Greece. It's full of ancient ruins, good food and wonderful culture. The Goddess Aphrodite was born there! The beaches are great, too. It's a destination spot for European tourists who are "in the know."
You can get there by overnight ferry boat. And Egypt is just a short distance away, also by ferry.
I have a friend who can look into places for your family to rent if you decide to go there.
You are going to have a great time on this trip! It's so exciting.
