Last week we were so pleased to have our very first (and hopefully not our last) overseas visitor! Chad stopped by Seoul on the return leg of his Japan business trip. We really enjoyed taking him to some of our favorite spots and just hanging out! I know Chris enjoyed having a buddy to chat with. We did a bit of touring to Gyeongbokgung Palace, where the attached photo is from. Chris refers to this photo as "The 3 C's"....Chris, Chad, and Kwame...:-) I will attach other photos to the blog also. We also stopped by the Korean Folk (Fork, as they spell it)Museum where we really had a great time. We learned a lot about Korean culture, language development, interactive displays, history, handicrafts...very interesting! We happened to be touring with a posse' of French visitors...so that added to the experience..:-)
I will say this...in all honesty...Chad was such an easy house guest...no problems at all! :-) I inadvertently forgot to mention him in the previous blog where we initally found the cool pottery...Chad was with us when we first discovered them. I just wish I had taken a picture of Chad with his cool dragon head statue(Celadon)..it will definitely become a conversation piece in his Chicago home.....very cool. We had a great Italian dinner, plenty of tasty Korean food and lots of fun scouting around. I think it gave both of us a boost to have a friend visit and we look forward to next time!
