This is the last post from Korea (for now).  I’ve been really busy getting ready to go home, thus haven’t posted in awhile.  I’m leaving for the airport in 10 minutes.  My next post will be from Oregon, sometime after Tuesday when the internet will be up and running. Thanks for the good times Korea! [...]

I’m leaving in an hour for the The Roots concert – their first performance in Seoul.  I’m meeting Ras, Brad, Eddie, and one other at Gwangnaru station (line 5).  It’s an expensive show, with general admission at 88,000 won and reserved seating at 110,000, which includes drinks and finger foods.  We bought the reserved seats.  [...]

(This photo was taken in the summer, when Seoul was a much warmer place to wander around in.) Anyone know where Mao restaurant in Iatewon is?  We’d like to have peking duck there tomorrow night.  If we can’t find it, My Thai-China sounds like a good alternative.  It’s on one of the side street by [...]

More (and bigger) pictures from this day can be seen [...]

“A goal without a plan is just a wish.”   ~Larry Elder I normally don’t like to make new year resolutions, but I think it’s important to have goals, whether long or short term ones.  I hope to review my goals every month and assess my progress.  Putting them on this blog will also help [...]

It’s almost vacation time!  My bags are packed, but I’m not taking much since I’ll only be gone for two weeks.  My camera gear is about the size of my clothes and toiletries (below).  As of this writing, I’m still not sure whether I want to take my backpack, or small suitcase with wheels.  It’s [...]

I just noticed that Louis Vuitton has a line of bags with the same name as my brother.  His name is spelled slightly different from the sun god, but the meaning is the same. For over $3000, it’s not a good looking bag IMHO.
