Excited about Alaska

Kelley Rosendahl brought up a great point on how we used to focus on pen pals to connect with students around the globe.  Now days we can just use Skype to talk to the other side of the world.  I have been trying to do this with my brother who teaches in Australia.  We are generating questions to ask each other in preparation for a possible school to trip down under.  I love the idea of using technology to bridge gaps.
