Hello World!

Welcome to the journeys of the Armstrong Family, led by an intrepid mom, her supportive and equally intrepid husband, and their 5 kids. This blog follows our family expedition, round the world, from July 2011 to June 2012, a life-long dream that subscribes to the belief that there’s a whole world out there to explore! Follow our trail as we go, view some great pics and videos, and read accounts from every member of the family. But most importantly, tell us what you think. Ask us questions. Share your stories. Give us ideas. We hope our journey will inspire your intrepidness too.
