Well, it's a weird thing... We kids were so ignorant and the adults deliberately kept us that way, in theory so we wouldn't be scared. They kept us cut off from news, so mostly we only found out after we were home. (1/2)
So in the rear view mirror, the trip looks different than it did while we were there. Overall it's a very good memory, actually. Many places there are magical, and when you don't know the politics you can just soak up the magic. (2/2)

That sounds right. My story is also a story about privilege. We weren't all white, but we grew up in silicon valley (the trip was in April 1988), which means we were all relatively well off, and sheltered.
Yeah, totally. BTW if you were there in June 1988 I was being born not that far from you. 
Hahaha now I feel old. I was a teen, but 18, so an adult a few months before you were born. Is this when I tell you to get off my lawn?
