We finally got our video done of our family trip to the Sahara where my 6yo daughter rode in on a camel and did a violin concert for 60 Berber kids and our camel trek and over night in the awesome Merzouga dunes of the Sahara which was a powerful experience for all of us! So far it has been the highlight of our world tour...which has been full of highlights.
This is stunning! I have followed your blog and saw the pictures right after you visited the Sahara, but the video is just wonderful! Your daughter is so blessed and so loved!
Thank you for sharing! Laura

WOW! What a magical place! I can understand why it has become one of your favorite locations. I love Mozart interacting with the adorable children and when she slid down the sand dune. Is it really as red as it looks? Definitely awe inspiring!! continued safe travels and my best to you all,
That was lovely and very moving. A once in a life time experience Mozart will never forget I'm sure. Stunning scenery. Thanks so much for sharing it with us.
I have been following your blog for a while now. This video is so lovely and moving. When I see your little one it's as though we are watching a little beautiful flower. I say to myself, "She's getting bigger!" You have given your child the world. This is a remarkable life you are offering to this little being. What a treat that you share your experience with all of us. Thanks for all the videos, blogs, etc. It is truly amazing this path you are taking. Barb Cabot

Thank you all for your very kind comments! Yes, it has been quite an adventure, even better than we imagined before we took off. We are just an ordinary family and I must admit I had no desire to go and would never have gone to the Sahara if it was not for our child's education. Funny where life leads us!
Thanks to all of you that follow the blog!
We have just finished our tour of Portugal which we really loved and have just arrived at Santiago de Compostella on a picture perfect day! We are sitting at a cafe with free wifi and Mozart just drew a picture of a pilgrim on a napkin! lol.
If you look on the video on youtube you will see more info about the song, but it is by Mathew Marsolek and it is a sanscrit prayer. We thought it really captured our visit ( and it was free...hee hee).
Our first video has gone over 730,000 views now and we have 21 up now and will continue to get them up as we can. We have so many good ones in the can, but finding time is the challenge. Venice is coming next, but I must find some good free music first.
