Banana Milk

Lots of people here love banana milk and the comedian Jung Joon Ha. Here there are together in a Korean commericial. We are learning A LOT from our television (just like in America....) Ha ha

Too bad we won't be around for the Thanksgiving Turkey Shootout that our hotel is sponsoring for Americans! yikes. Hopefully we will be in our own apartment by then. Jet lag was beyond belief. I really wish I had stayed well hydrated like my sister and the US Army told me to. Some signs here are in Korean and English, but the subway is all Korean all the time. We are studying the Gyeongwon Line that goes from Seoul to Camp Casey. It's a long one. So far I know that this 출구 means "exit" and this 화장실 means "bathroom." Jon helped me figure out that last one. He likes a good bathroom. Dominic is walking like mad and doesn't seem to have an issue with leaving his home continent. We are getting used to spending millions of won. Here's a link to our hotel is you want to check it out: http://www.dragonhilllodge.com/main.html

생일 축하합니다

That's Happy Birthday in Korean! Yes, it's my darling husband, Jon's birthday. It's hard to believe that he is almost 30 now. We made it safely to Asia and are dealing with some red tape and getting more information about our new digs. We are in a hotel for now which we are really "feeling." Lots of seafood and KFC! Dominic did great on the flight except for a little crying and screaming during take off and landing, which was actually good because no one could hear Jon's crying and screaming.

Peace 안녕 ,

What a Difference a Year Makes!



An Unfortunately Sidewise Thanksgiving Miracle

Fake Thanksgiving

It's the week of a thousand goodbyes. My husband, Jonathan (U.S. Army ret.), my son Dominic, and I are on my last week of leave before being P.A.O.ed to South Korea for a 24 month sit. I think movement of troops is not covered under the first ammendment, so that is all I can say. Our families are celebrating Thanksgiving today in our honor. We've got collards, rutabagas, turkey, ribs, creamed onions, and mashies on the menu. And yes, with a side of kimchee!
