Back from Korea

I returned from my business trip to Korea on Wednesday. It was a very good experience and I'm glad I had the opportunity to go. The trip was 3 days longer than planned, but all in all the time went by quickly. It was good to return home to my family after being away for 2 weeks. Josh did very well with the children with his parents help. He even vacuumed once while I was gone! He managed to get to church before the sermon began, too! I heard the kids looked dressed OK also while I was gone. So here are some pictures from my trip:


A Korean Folk Village which we toured in Seoul - Namsangol Hanok Village


Inside one of the homes/rooms at the Korean folk village


A chicken soup lunch we ate. It was a whole chicken in a Ginseng broth.


A Korean BBQ Dinner


Our Sushi dinner. So much food!


I'm not a big fan of Sushi, but I did try all of it.


I went to church with some friends from Escondido (Westminster). Julius is a NT professor at the seminary and is spending his sabbatical in Korea.


A palace we visited in Seoul - Gyeong Bok Gung Palace


Inside the palace


The throne room inside the palace

The king's bedroom inside his house in the palace


The sightseeing group - 2 of our Korean colleagues showed us around Seoul on our day off


Inside a local marketplace in Seoul


The local marketplace. The shopping was fun.


The real reason for my trip. To start-up a distillation system we built and installed in our Korean plant.


It was fun to come home and give the kids their gifts from my trip. I got them all a set of Korean/Oriental clothing/PJ's. Here they are showing off their clothes. Caleb and Eliyana wanted to wear them to school.
