Korean War Museum

Here are some pictures of the war museum. It was a great chance to learn about korean history. You should definitely check it out if your in Seoul. 

Seoul Tower And Traditional Bibimbop

One of the biggest attractions in Seoul and we almost missed it, Namsang Tower or Seoul Tower . I am glad we got to go with some great friends too. Enjoy the pictures. 

Dr. Fish

The Big Fish

Well, we found one. After a year of looking we found a Dr. Fish. It was located in Gangnam, Seoul a few buildings before Dos Tacos on the fourth floor. Fish eating all the dead skin on my feet..it was quite tickiling. Heather and I went with a group of our friends just before we left Korea. It was alot of fun. You can enjoy a cup of coffee and get your feet exfoliated at the same time.

Chara's Getting Bigger

Chara, is getting bigger, and continually reminding us, how impatient we are, I mean....how awesome she is. :)

Well Here's an Update from Chara:

An yang ah seh yo. That's hello, where I'm from. My name is Chara! I am now 3 months old! Like any golden retriever puppy, I am full of energy!

Cherry Blossoms

Come Spring, Cherry Blossoms line the streets of Korea, but their beautiful flowers only last a few weeks.

Luckily, we were able to enjoy their beauty, before all their petals fell, littering the sidewalk like snow.

Spring in Korea

We have throughly enjoyed the beauty of Spring in Korea so far.

Flowers are in bloom in every green space you can find, beautifully painting the streets and parks of Korea. 

Sinsi-do Island

Recently, we had the opportunity to go on a church picnic, to Sinsi-do Island.

We had a great time with friends and seeing a new place in Korea.


We realized/learned many things we arrived at Sinsi-do. 

Mexican Food in South Korea: Las Margaritas

 We have found the closest thing to Mexican food in our little home Jukjeon, South Korea. And being from Texas, We have some true authority on this topic. :) It is REALLY good.
The owner James is from Vancouver and is an experienced chef and business owner. He is really reaching out to the foreign community in his restaurant, as well.
 The service is just as amazing as the delicious chips, salsa and sour cream.
We would definitely recommend the fajitas, our personal favorite. They are served on a sizzling skillet, with lots of delicious steak, chicken and vegetables. The fajitas come with guacamole, cheddar cheese, flour tortillas, sour cream, salsa, spicy ranch, refried beans and spanish rice. I highly recommend a trip to Jukjeon just for a taste. It is conveniently located on the popular restaurant row.  

The Loving Hut

For those vegans out there in South Korea...there is a Loving Hut in Jukejeon.
Loving Hut is a completely vegan restaurant, 100%. We had a great 5 course meal for two, for just 30,000 won. (which is equivalent to around $28.00.) Here is some pics for you to savor....

Angel in Us Coffee

Heather and I have really enjoyed this coffee shop with its comfortable chairs and great service..but most of all its club sandwich set.

The Lost Clip..Arrival in Incheon South Korea

Chara: Our New Golden Retriever

Chara: The Puppy of Joy


Well, we got a new puppy. Her name is Chara. Her name in Greek means joy and happiness.

"These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full."
-John 15:11


Our prayer is that our family would have our joy in Christ.
And that Chara would continually remind us to have that JOY!

Finally: Tour Of Our Apartment

Well here it is finally a tour of our apartment...have fun...

The Quest For The Lost Wallet

Well, I did it. I lost my wallet. So Heather and I went to Seoul with some friends to celebrate a friends birthday. Around 11: 45pm, we got back to Jukjeon in a taxi. As I got out of the taxi, I realized that I left my gloves. So I set my wallet on top of the taxi to reach for my gloves. We got back to the apartment to unpack from the day and I realized that it was gone.

City Bus Tours

In our time in Korea, we have found that the city bus tour is a great resource to take advantage of.  For around 10,000 won which is around $9 you can travel the major cities in style and comfort. The usual mode of transportation is a single or double-decker bus.

The tour also comes with a guided tour and information through a headset in about 5 different languages: English, French, Japanese, Chinese or Korean. The bus stops at major sites in the city every 30 to 60 minuets.

Korean New Year(Seollal): Lunar New Year

Heather is the Year of the Rabbit!!! This year is her year...wooo!!

During Lunar New Year there are some things you must know and do....

If you are a teacher in Korea you will most likely get a 5 day weekend because around 80 % of the population will travel to the home to their parents. This holiday not only celebrates the beginning of a new Lunar Calendar, but also to honor and pray to their ancestors. They will often dress in Korean traditional clothing called "hanbok." It is customary to also eat special rice cakes and soup for good luck for the next year.

Haechi-The New Symbol Of Seoul

 When my wife and I first saw this interesting character it puzzled us. It was just sitting on a BROKEN bench all by itself. And we thought: "What is this thing?? Really a yellow vampire gargoyle cartoon like character sitting on a broken bench..." I have been interested in finding out what this is. Well I have found the answer..

New Video...The Dr. Office

Everyone said it was inevitable...That everyone gets it. When they said this we both sort of chuckled inside, I think, thinking, "HA! That won't happen to us."

Well it did.
It hit me first.
Runny nose. Yellow slugs-a sure sign of a sinus infection, too. And a bad cough. And a general, all around feeling of suckiness.
My cold started about a week and a half before Zachary's, and lasted around 2 weeks. Yuck!

The pharmacy here is amazing! You can go and tell the Pharmacist exactly what's going on and he will give you a few boxes of medicine and tell you how often to take them! Why even go to the doctor?! While having our colds we bought LOTS of medicine. And never paid over 7,000 won for them, equivalent to about $6 or so.Cheap, cheap, cheap!

All during my suffering, Zachary had much pride in his own immune system, secretly thinking that his immune system must be way stronger than mine, because he wasn't getting it. Well they say pride comes before the fall. Because Zachary got the cold, with a vengeance.
His was really bad. And he felt terrible.
A few days in, It was clear he was definitely getting a bad sinus infection with no signs of getting better. So he decided to go to the doctor.
Very convenient and right next to our apartment.
Since he was foreign, they met with him almost immediately.


The doctor told Zachary, "Now, Just relax." And then.....

well why don't I let Zachary tell you..
This is hilarious....Enjoy

Heathers Birthday

I had a wonderful 23rd birthday (24 Korean age!) in Korea!

I received some packages, cards and love through the mail! I was very blessed by everything everyone sent! Thank you! It seems that my love language in Korea is receiving packages! I feel all giddy and excited to get something in the mail, like a little girl!
