Beginning
Aug. 23, 2024 - Maui, HI Lately I have been asked by friends, family, and co-workers if I keep a journal or blog about my travels. You see, I recently started flying again and this time I work for one of the largest carriers in the world serving over 300 destinations. So, I decided it would be a good idea to keep records of my experiences and journey. Not necessarily for others to read, though I do love sharing, but more so for myself. I enjoy writing and taking pictures, so what better way to chronicle my odyssey! In the past six months, I have traveled to: four Hawaiian islands multiple times; Paris and Chantilly, France; Amsterdam three times; London; Geneva, Switzerland; Shanghai; Juneau, Alaska; and many states within the continental U.S. My company offered a temporary leave...
Awesome, Cliff - Annyeonghaseyo!! Hopefully you’ve read, or at least heard about, MacArthur’s famous behind enemy lines 1950 Inchon Landing, which saved South Korea in the war! I hope/assume you’ll make it to the BIG city and, if there’s time, I’d recommend a tour of Panmunjom at the DMZ. It’s right across the line from the North Korea in a very stressful setting. Either way, enjoy some bulgogi and real ramen!! Back in the day, street food offerings I enjoyed included a bag of fried shrimp for about 100 won, which was equivalent to $.25! I don’t know the exchange rate these days but I’m sure that price is gone up as with everything else. Enjoy the rest of your trip and safe travels when you finally head home!!
ReplyDeleteHey Son, great pictures of south Korea! Cool to read what uncle Gary wrote. You guys will have more to talk about once you get home. Can't wait to see you!, love you
ReplyDeleteI’ve missed your pictures the last several days. Looks like no shortage of food or shopping. I hope you’re having a great time. I know you’re probably trying. Lots of new foods. Enjoy!
