Alan, Allison, and the Boys. Friday, November 07, 2008. Amber this is for you. So it has been a long time since we last posted, but for everyone but Amber it is better late than never right? We love you Amber. Our summer/fall has been very eventful and we have been blessed in many ways. We want to thank Tiff and Jeff for their generosity as they let us live in their basement while we saved for a down payment. We moved into our own house and are trying to make it our home. I am about to drop dead! You are...

carters' travels: Seoul 5
http://susiengary.blogspot.com/2007/11/soul-5.html
View my complete profile. Friday, November 9, 2007. Well, we are at the airport waiting for our flight home. We've really had a wonderful time on this trip. Here are a couple of more things we learned before I get to a summary of today:. People's ages are measured differently here. When a child is born, he/she is already one year old. They count the age including the time of prenatal development, so when an American child is one, a Korean child with the same birth date is two.

View my complete profile. Saturday, November 3, 2007. I've just read this over. It is ridiculously long. I don't really expect anyone to read it. It's just my journal so I can remember. There will be pictures when we get to Korea. I know that is the best part. Sorry for all of this. So, we finally got to the temple. It was magnificent - so much gold, so many statue of Buddha in different poses. The most common are walking Buddha, meditating Buddha, and protecting Buddha. You can tell the Budd...More tidb...

carters' travels: Chiang Mai
http://susiengary.blogspot.com/2007/11/chiang-mai.html
View my complete profile. Friday, November 2, 2007. Yesterday was a travel day. We flew from Bangkok to Chiang Mai. We have just a few things of interest to report that we learned from our new guide on our way to the hotel from the airport. We passed some rice paddies and learned that you can't tell what kind of rice is growing there from just looking. You have to feel the top. If it is short and fat then it is sticky rice. If it is long grained then it is white rice. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

So many of the flowers and really other things are geared toward the Buddhist religion. The flowers are used for offerings. There were tons of yellow flowers which the color for the gods taken from the Hindu tradition which has been mixed with their Buddhist beliefs. So- the Jim Thompson house.he came to Thailand near the end of World War II with the Army...

View my complete profile. Wednesday, November 7, 2007. I spent yesterday morning catching the blog up - this is a career in itself! In the afternoon, I went with two other women to see the Seoul Tower which overlooks this huge city. I asked the concierge how much a taxi would cost and he said 25,000 won. It actually cost 28,000. The interesting thing is that the taxi we hailed ourselves to bring us back cost 12,500 won. Hmmm. Some collusion do you think? They led us all the way there! We had a wonderful ...

Grandpa Gary has taught her to wink. although she can't quite do it with one eye; she practices constantly. :). Life goes by so quickly. She is teaching me to enjoy.
