Spring is here!

All work and no play means...

....you can leave your boots anywhere?? I was on my way to work, when I came across these lonely pair of boots this morning. There were no feet (drunk or sober) to go in them. Ahhhh Korea....Spring has finally decided to stop on by, and boy is she pretty! The Cherry Blossoms have popped and I wanted to show all of you who are not in Asia (so everyone who reads this blog??) how wonderful it is here right now. I've decided that if I could live in a world where cherry blossoms blossomed all year long, I would be one very happy lady. They are BEAUTIFUL! Its too bad they only last a few days...

See what I mean?? Amazing! It's like snow has fallen and only landed on the pretty trees.

This lady didn't really appreciate them this much this morning, or me taking pictures of them for that matter. But I guess I wouldn't if I had to lug three shovels up a huge mountain to go pick/plant some thing all day long either!


On a side note, we've been keeping pretty busy lately with work and such. The kiddos for some reason are extra cute this year. Perhaps its because we know we are leaving in a few short months (the end is in sight type of thing) but I don't think Ed and I have enjoyed a group of students more.

I've got kids making mini-dramas about their English book cartoon characters, 'Steve' and 'Yu-jin'. Steve and Yu-jin are having quite the love affair---that is when Steve is not beating Yu-jin, like he was today. Its very Days, trust me! Let me know if you want all the gory, lovey details. I will provide them for you!

Ed's students are dancing in class and freaking out over boy bands. So I guess thats not too new, but still its enough to make him (and me) giggle.

I wanted to take some pictures of the azaleas for you all, but my foot, back and nose are saying no way to any sort of hiking (or physical activity for that matter) so I'm hoping they (the flowers--and my foot and back and nose for that matter too!) will still be around by this weekend. But don't worry! I've been keeping busy cuddling with Eddie--so everything is all good!

How is your spring turning out??

Hi Jen! The cherry blossom pics are awesome! I'm still in total amazement that you live in another country and are going to head out on another adventure to another country. Rich and I were talking about making our next trip in your direction when we can afford another international and long vacation. It'd be great to catch up and reconnect with you and Ed. Every now and again, I remember that you have a blog and am always happy to see the other side of the world through your and Eddie's eyes! Thanks for sharing your adventures!
Hugs,
Leslie
