Kitchen Tables of South Korea Here We Come!

Hey there avid and devoted readers,

Last night team S.K. headed over to Mrs. Min's house for dinner. Mrs. Min is our very patient and very fun Korean language teacher. She filled the table (literally!) with all kinds of wonderful foods including:

Galbi-gui (Broiled Short Ribs)

Bulgogi (Barbecued Beef)

Kimchi (Pickled/Fermented Cabbage)

Kong Namul (Boiled and Seasoned Bean Sprouts)

A variety of vegetables, sesame leaves, seaweed soup, crab, mushrooms, and other goodies also filled the table. For dessert we had "Shin-go" Korean pears (AWESOME!) and sweet crackers.

Everything was amazing and the table was filled with lots of laughter, stories, and planning. A picture of the group with Mrs. Min will be coming soon!

One More Week

In exactly one week, we will be on board the plane to South Korea. Our itinerary still remains a mystery, but we know that someone will be at the airport waiting for us. Checking out the weather in Taegu/Daegu, it still looks better than here! At this point, anywhere that doesn't have a foot of snow is looking better and better. :)

Current conditions as of 3:00 am KST

We Are Getting Close!

With only 12 days left to go, the group is getting excited! Some of us are even beginning to suffer Packer's Anxiety (and no, it has nothing to do with Brett Favre's retirement).
