Denis and 
Francis had to work hard to try and find a way into Iran. Their were certain parts that they were not allowed to go into. When it came down to Marco Polo they were pretty open to letting him pass into the country.]]> 2017-11-25 18:04:40 UTC https://padlet.com/20zsa01/ixu0lro1xr6x/wish/210059088 20zsa01 https://padlet.com/20zsa01/ixu0lro1xr6x/wish/213550085 During Marco Polo's time the people of Persia didn't get many foreigners so they were very interested to see what Polo had to offer and his reasoning's for being there.  For Denis and Francis they had the same experience but instead of just being able to get up and leave to Afghanistan they had to wait for their visa's to allow them into the country. They were guarded by Afghan's and had to dress like Afghan's. ]]> 2017-12-06 00:57:53 UTC https://padlet.com/20zsa01/ixu0lro1xr6x/wish/213550085 20zsa01 https://padlet.com/20zsa01/ixu0lro1xr6x/wish/213941959 While Denis and Francis finally got into Afghanistan they already knew what they were about to get themselves into. During the time of their stay there was a lot of fighting going on and they actually got into a situation where they could of been killed. For Marco Polo, there was a lot of conflict due to the taliban and there was actual fighting going on around him. ]]> 2017-12-06 23:05:28 UTC https://padlet.com/20zsa01/ixu0lro1xr6x/wish/213941959 20zsa01 https://padlet.com/20zsa01/ixu0lro1xr6x/wish/217282290 For Marco Polo Balkh was a very dangerous place. Some of his men were attacked , captured and sold. As for Denis and Francis they were accidentally ambushed and were threatened to leave the area. Luckily the men who captured them were looking for other people and not actually them. ]]> 2017-12-19 16:02:10 UTC https://padlet.com/20zsa01/ixu0lro1xr6x/wish/217282290 20zsa01 https://padlet.com/20zsa01/ixu0lro1xr6x/wish/217287167 For Marco Polo the Journey in the Taklimakan desert was rough. He got lost and he actually had to use the ways of the natives there to live and survive while he was staying there. For Denis and Francis they followed the silk road and apparently it was very cold instead of warm. They also had a very hard time trying to buy camels since they wanted to ride camels through the desert.]]> 2017-12-19 16:17:31 UTC https://padlet.com/20zsa01/ixu0lro1xr6x/wish/217287167 20zsa01 https://padlet.com/20zsa01/ixu0lro1xr6x/wish/217378947 Denis and Francis finally reached Hong Kong and wanted to go out in style, so what did they do? They left by ship just like Marco Polo did. Denis and Francis had to actually sign up as crew-members to go on the ship and sail to India. They couldn't believe that they were doing this. ]]> 2017-12-19 21:05:29 UTC https://padlet.com/20zsa01/ixu0lro1xr6x/wish/217378947 20zsa01 https://padlet.com/20zsa01/ixu0lro1xr6x/wish/217383129 I would like to travel to Afghanistan to interview the natives there and try to understand how they live and what a day in their life would look like. ]]> 2017-12-19 21:30:00 UTC https://padlet.com/20zsa01/ixu0lro1xr6x/wish/217383129 20zsa01 https://padlet.com/20zsa01/ixu0lro1xr6x/wish/217611806 They learned how lucky they really have it in America. Its crazy what we take for granted and how much we focus on just plain, dumb stuff instead of trying to make ourselves better and help our loved ones, everyone. We need to learn that we need to love each other and care for each other even when we got our own problems, you cant just get mad at other people for your own problems especially if your the one who caused them. ]]> 2017-12-20 22:20:28 UTC https://padlet.com/20zsa01/ixu0lro1xr6x/wish/217611806
