how i feel about this trip, and what ive done in the past few days.... if i can remember

so i feel that korea is very loving and caring, kind, and also very umm... how do you say it kind of like very religious or um i cant think of it right now but in the past few days ive visited jeonju, busan, and gwangju (where i was born), and daejon. in jeonju there was an orphanage, that was the place where we donated all the gifts that my friends gave to me. and all my friends that went to my party and donated those gifts, thank you so very much! in busan i went to the awesome beach and thats when i went to gwangju (where i was born) there i met the social worker who named me at the hospital i was born at and i went to the place my birth mother stayed at. it was the unwed mothers shelter. the mothers that were there made me jewelry that was very pretty and very nice of them. then in busan i just stayed at the hotel. we also traveled to daejon, where i did a home stay which it was a long car ride to daejon then a long car ride to the mother's house and the bedroom was very hot and humid, so i get motion sickness very easily and so i got sick and i had to go to the hotel there. but the mother was awfully nice and i was very sad when i had to go :( but today we took a ktx (a very fast train) it goes 300 km per hour! then i came back to the hamilton in seoul. yay! we went to the chongdong theatre to see a musical called miso it was very loud with all the drums but it was pretty fun and cool. tomorrow i will go to mapo district and ilsan, in mapo district all the adoptees become honorary citizens of korea. in ilsan i will visit harry and bertha holt's gravesite. and all the special needs kids and adults. so thats about all i think..... :) but byebye!

um probably more random stuff about korea....

okay! so today we went to the largest tower in the world (yes, it is the LARGEST IN THE WORLD) it is called the seoul tower, and that is a very boring name for THE LARGEST TOWER IN THE WORLD! but it is really cool. we also went to the largest open market, it had the most awesomest stuff there were tshirts and pants, pajamas, underwear, and there were butt bras, it was really funny, and they also had jewelry, and make up boxes, and shoes, purses, bags, hair acessories, make up, food, socks, that is all i can think of right now but it was ginormous! i loved it! thats about all we did today, so tomorrow we are going to a orpanage (called jeonjoo) to play with babies and little kids, then we leave for a home stay in daejeon (which is a city) . thats about all i know so um goodbye now! =D

um stuff in korea

hello everyone! i am so sorry i havent gotten to blog lately, but i am soo busy with all the touring and other things. so in the past two days it has been hectic, i mean we toured the korean folk village today, and yesterday we had a long flight and a long ride to our hotel. we are staying at the hamilton, which is very nice, but it all it has been KRAZY! (see how i used a "k" instead of a "c" because it has been that crazy) so anywho i did go shopping but i am still waiting to meet my moms vender, she always says' "wait until we see my vender!" so it better be pretty good if ive had to pass one thing after another. i am sorry i have no pictures yet but i have no time! as i told you before it has been KRAZY! and it also takes a while to upload them but i will post some soon. tomorrow we are going to see the mayor and meet my foster mother! that will be fun and exciting! it doesnt seem like im in korea, i feel like im just on another trip somewhere, but then im shopping and some korean lady, speaking in korean, comes up to me saying things and im like "ookay umm uh huh goodbye now" haha... its not that funny its just weird. but time to go. so i will blog soon! thanks for waiting patiently for me im sorry again that i havent blogged for a while but got to go! bye! =D

the airport

this is the part that isnt so much fun. airports. i do get motion sick very easily in cars, airplanes, and boats. but the fun part is you get to places faster, and you can do a lot of things on an airplane. now ive never been in an international plane before but im very excited to see how humongous it is! i am in the omaha airport right now, it isnt very fun but we are going to denver, from there we are going to seattle, after we are there its off to korea! we had to wake up at three inthe morning...ugh...but thats okay i guess we are all dressed in these cool tshirts that paul,the tour leader, made us! there will be 42 people in our group traveling to korea! wow! well that is all i have to say for now so.

chao for now! (hehe)
