It's the little things....

Most apartments in Korea have roof top access. They serve as a place to grow plants, do laundry, and dry seed weed (I learned this the other day when I went up to dry our sheets and had to share the line with one of our neighbors.) We've started really enjoying going on the roof. It's quiet, calming and has a good view. I especially like going up on Saturday mornings because I usually see a handlful of older Korean ladies watering their plants or hanging clothes. One guy even has a dog run rooftop dog run.

Donna visits the Peninsula

Janny's mom visited Korea last week. We had a great time. It was so fun to see her. We got to show her all our favorite restaurants and sites. Donna is a great explorer as well. Everyday she would come home with some great story about who she had meet and what she had done. Donna loved Korea and Korea loved Donna. Here's some highlights:She's here!
We prepared her a Korean care package equipped with a Dust Storm protection mask, travel books, and maps.
Donna prepares for her first bite of Kimchi- it's a big moment in anybody's life.
I'm not kidding Donna made friends everywhere she went- instantly. These ladies saw us in a parking lot, gave us candy and tissues, and then started hugging Donna. Our friend Curtis is in the background giggling.

Donna strategically placing a coin on this rock for good luck.

Hello Again

We're alive! We have our computer back, and Janny has finally shaken her month long sicknesses. Here's the final tally from the Dust Storm- pink eye twice, two colds, 2 week long mouth ulcers. She's always boasted about her incredible white blood cells...Chinese dust appear to be her kryptonite. In any event, we will try to keep the blog updated.
