Pictures of the apartment are on Flickr. They will only be available to everyone for a week. After that you will need to be one of my contacts on Flickr to see them. Flickr is a great site, and it's free, and I post pictures there every few days.

So we have been in Seoul for almost two weeks now. We have recovered from our jet lag and have turned in most of our paperwork. Last weekend we were able to explore a neighborhood near the base, and this weekend we are planning to explore our own surroundings. The boy and I have wandered around our immediate area, but today should take us a bit farther. We plan to end the day with a bowl of Bi Bim Bop, and we will need to find a restaurant. I think we are all looking forward to the day.

So our thoughts of Korea? We like what we've seen so far, but that isn't much. I can tell you that the base here is really well put together but that it really is not set up for family members to do things on their own. I've received some awfully strange looks when I've walked in and asked questions.

The boy has been great through all of it. He spent all day Wednesday walking behind me, not complaining about the heat or how much his legs hurt. We did spend one full hour in the indoor playground at Burger King, but other than that it was all walking and asking boring questions, and he was fine.

So far he thinks the best things about Korea are the playgrounds and the food. He's also very fond of our new tv. Turns out that video games look really good on a 40 inch screen.
