So I got a new camera so I am taking all the old photos off the memory card and here are some. And thanks to Papa and Enrique for the early morning help with the camera, the new owner of a Silver Canon A3200 IS! Now lets see if it survives Thailand. Here are some of those photos...

Sae Jong Dae Huang, the Top Banana at the Gyong Bok Gung Palace, right outside metro exit in Seoul.

Mountain behind the palace.

 The entrance to the palace.

 The guards outside.

 This guy was sleeping.

 The beginning of the changing of the guards ceremony.

 The new ones walking to the entrance.

Finished.

 Two panoramic shots of the streets, and in the middle of the swarm of people, cars actually drove by.

 The van is trying to sneak by.

 A food stand, that had a rotating meat spit.

 Two motor officers, with lights constantly blinking on my way to Seoul.

 Two arches that where in the streets of Cheongju.

 Five characters in the city of Cheongju that can be seen everywhere. We all picked one, I think I was the green one.

 In Cheongju there is a Cat Cafe, and for a small fee you get to sit down and have coffee and biscuits while in the presence of South Koreas laziest cats.

 This cat was not happy about wearing that pink vest.

 Fresh fish at the market.

 A little scooter that caught my eye.

 The fresh market in my city of Cheonyang.

 Below is one of my Kindergardeners with her puppy that she brought. Slightly distracting when you are trying to teach and a puppy is being passed around, bathed and petted constantly.

 Thats the chubby finger of the other kindergardener that took my phone to take some pictures.

Above is the fastest Korean known to man. June is a  4 year old that loves to get into trouble, and as I was being taken to the new bus stop by four of my 1st grade girls, he was plotting his revenge on them for making him cry in the hall-way just moments earlier. He came dashing out with just socks wielding two xylophone mallets yelling at the girls and chasing them around the snow covered playground. 

Due to June being so quick, and mainly from me laughing so hard, I barely caught a photo of him as he makes his escape back inside after the onslaught was complete.

So I have been here for a little over a month and I am now starting this blog. To recap those first crazy days I will post as I remember the funny stories in shorter stories as to not bore you with lengthy posts. Please ask general or detailed questions, as it will make it easier for me to create posts. Here are several photos from my trip over here, and many more are soon to come.

My look over the mountains of the midwest.

My last American sunrise. 

The meal on the plane, Bimbibab, with instructions for those of us who didn't know how to eat it.

Where I ate my first Korean meal with my feet on the ground.

That first meal consisting of spicy beef dish, kimchi, bean sprouts, tofu, and dried fishy strips, thankfully their menu had an English translation, or I would have gone hungry.

 The view from my guest house/hotel. Beyond the building is the airport.

Some snap shots from my pick up van from Seoul to my school in Cheonyang.

 The driver has live TV on his GPS, I wonder why they have so many accidents?

Well its late, and I just wanted to finally get this blog up and running. I have heard from others posts on Facebook and blogs, and it seems people like to see pictures and read less. That being said I will try to post as many pictures as possible, and try to post often so I don't have to post lengthy novels and bore you all. Thanks for being patient (like you had a choice) and hope you enjoy this!
