I’m really impressed with your writing skills and also with the layout on your weblog. Is this a paid theme or did you customize it yourself? Either way keep up the excellent quality writing, it’s rare to see a nice blog like this one nowadays..

What a fun and refreshing way to learn history!
I saw this for the first time last night on my local Idaho PBS station.
This morning I had my daughter watch it on my computer. It was just as great the second time around.
After it was over I tried to see if I could purchase it as my documenatry library would not be complete without it.
I was disappointed to find it is not on DVD so I contacted Denis and he assured me that it will be released for Christmas. I can’t wait! I feel like a kid again awaiting a present!

Just saw this on PBS – really excellent. Years ago I travelled all around Nepal, India, China, and Pakistan. Nothing like THIS awesome trip; but it was great to feel those days again! And they’re right – the people are decent wherever you go.

I stumbled across this film last night while channel surfing, and was immediately riveted. Now I must see the beginning that I missed. What an amazing adventure!

I have recently watched this documentary in class, and it was definetely a wonderful experience. I, by no doubt, could not ever even think about being able to do such a marvelous thing. Many obstacles were approached by the both of you. However, with courage, determination, and definetely much perseverence you passed through them all. A perfect example is when you had needed to go through the Taklimakan Desert. According to the documentary, the Takliman Desert rendered people to madness. The both of you may have avoided the treacherous desert. However, you decided to go in. Since you did, you HAD actually traveled “in the footsteps of Marco Polo”.

My social studies teacher made us watch this video. I loved it! I myself would had retraced Marco Polo’s steps. I think when i’m older enough I will be another who will retracing Marco Polo’s steps. This documentary motioned to be like them. To travel all around the world. I got a social studies project on the documentary “In the Footsteps of Marco Polo”.

What a great documentary and the guys are even better in person. They visited my school in Yonkers NY and they were outstanding. If you have the opportunity make sure you meet them. Great Movie and captivating enough to keep 35 twelve and thriteen year olds riveted. They acted as though they were meeting Jay Z when they met Francis and and Denis. Thank You WLIW
