Korea

I had a great time visiting Mike Clark in South Korea. We spent some time being tourists in Soeul and ate lots of good food. I was suprised to find that everything is VERY expensive there and that the people are similar to Americans in that they love having material items, especially technology. EVERYONE had a cell phone and so many people had really expensive NICE digital cameras...Big ones like the Nikkon D200. It's like they were all professional photographers or something. Seosan was much smaller and much more "Korean" but they still had a Dominos and a Baskin Robins, which is nice for the foreign teachers who live there. I got to meet some of Mike's co-workers and they were all very hospitable. I hung out with a really sweet Christian women named Maria all week. She shared with me that her husband works Monday-Saturday from around 9:00 in the morning until 8:30 at night and until 1:00 on Saturday. That is a typical males work schedule. WOW...talk about busy. I also got a chance to go to dinner with an old friend from my DTS in 2004. Her and her husband live an hour outside of the City and they came in just to see me. I was honoured. I am so thankful I got a chance to visit one of my best friends and I am so blessed to have such an amazing friend. Mike, thanks for treating me like a princess.

Gross, pig head!!!!!

It was suprisingly difficult to find temples, because everything is very westernized in Korea.

I hope the drinks are SWEET, not full of sweat :)
