It's been busy here. Work work work. I just started the Instructor Pilot Upgrade a few weeks ago, so I'm back in the books and back to getting evaluated again.
Last weekend I picked up my SUV in Seoul....It's surprising that I've had that car with me since pilot training...and now it's been all over the world: Texas, Arizona, Italy, and now Korea. Most of the guys here don't ship their car to Korea. Instead they opt to buy "beaters." Cars that are absolutely falling apart are common here...and it's always an adventure to drive or ride in them. Most guys just give away their car when they leave (usually just happy to get rid of it.)
I spent a night last weekend hanging out in Seoul. It is such a cool city. I ate dinner at a traditional Korean restaurant that had a music and dance performance all done in the traditional garb. Very cool.
This weekend was spent recovering from a somewhat busy week. This morning we all went to the orphanage again and played with the kids. Once again, we got an awesome performance of singing and drumming. They also know several Christian songs in English that were quite good. The sun was out today finally...which is nice because there's usually overcast/cloudy conditions here in the winter.
Next weekend is the Korean holiday of the Lunar New Year. This is a BIG event for them. They usually go out in massive waves to visit their families and birthplaces. I also hear that South Koreans and North Koreans travel near the DMZ if they have relatives "on the other side."

Not getting that English option for typing. At least that stress with the container of light bulbs, coke cans, wire, and socks is done with. Now you have to deal with that mass not letting you on the train.
See what I deal with.
