Tara's Visit



Our friend came to visit us for the second time in 9 months! She had a business trip in China, and since Beijing is so close to Seoul, she came over for 3 days. We hung out in Seoul for a day and a half, and took in an interesting "extreme dance comedy" show. We did a bit of shopping, and even saw David Beckham for a split second (he was in Seoul for a big soccer game).
On Friday we had a get-together at our place and drank some fruit soju and then introduced Tara to her 1st norae-bang (singing room). We had our own lil room and belted out songs for an hour and a half. The next day we woke up early and headed to the ski slopes. After skiing, we met up with our Korean friends Arnie and Jinnie who live near Seoul. The 5 of us had dinner and ice cream before they headed back. Then Tara and I headed to the "jim-jil-bang" which is a public bathhouse/spa. It was quite relaxing! This AM we put Tara on the airport bus and by now she's back in China ready to start her business trip.
In less than two months Tanya (H's high school friend) and John are coming to visit, and as soon as they leave, B's mom and brother are coming! We're going to be busy tour guides, and can't wait to see everyone! We're very grateful to have wonderful family and friends!!
