48 Hours in Seoul:

An Itinerary for Getting the Most From A Too Brief Trip

Are you looking for history, culture, nature, great food, good shopping, and a little taste of Korea?  Well, Seoul is definitely the best place for all of these things!  In fact, Seoul has so many amazing things to do that you could spend years there and still never see everything (I spent 3 months and barely cracked the surface). But sometimes you don’t have forever to spend in a place. Continue reading

Little Girl Dancing–So Cute!

30 Jan

While visiting the Kawasaki Mall in Yokohama, I was surprised to find that Teen Top was visiting the mall for a fan meeting the same day. We sat around for a few hours waiting for the meeting to start, and the mall was playing the band’s videos and music on big tv’s around the area.

This little girl loved the music and started dancing around! She actually has a great sense of rhythm! 🙂 So cute! ❤

The Jedburghs: Spies, Espionage, and Sabotage!

Operation Jedburgh:

Spies, Espionage, and Sabotage

Parachutes and Cities

29 Jan

So. . . I ran over a parachute the other day and I’m still confused by this factor.   Not a small one either. I’m at the main street crossroads of a busy city, and I run over a rather large parachute in the middle of the road. I’m not talking one of those cute little army-men parachute things you get at the Fourth of July either. It was as long as my truck, and when the wind caught it, the balloon thing blew out and started to pick up. Then we ran over it again.  It had a small bag thing on the end of the ropes too.

Now, I’m assuming this blew out of someone’s car, but who the heck is lucky enough to have a parachute in their car in the first place!?!  Where do I get mine?

Or perhaps it was a secret parachute that landed in the wrong place carrying super top secret information. . . My imagination can’t stop wondering. 😛

Anyone know what kind of flower this is? It was blooming outside of Seoul’s tourism center this summer, but I still can’t find out what kind it was. Isn’t it gorgeous!!
