Some pics from Mom's visit...

The first picture is of the lookout point overlooking North Korea. We weren't allowed to take photos past that yellow line. I couldn't see much since it was so foggy, but I thought perhaps I saw KJI giving his the finger from afar.


The next two pictures are of the section of the DMZ tour that honors the sacrifices made during the Korean world.


The first two pics above are at Dorasan Station which is the only place where both North Korean and South Korean soldier patrol. The station has the only train from South Korea to North Korea. The first pic is the spot where George W. Bush gave his Axis of Evil speech.
The third picture is of two guns used during the Korean war.




There's Unkyung looking cute above.



These pictures are of: 1.) the popular Meyongdong shopping area, 2.) The cast of JUMP, a martial arts comedy show, and 3.) A dance performance in Insadong, another popular shopping area. I love the fact that all the dancers were senior citizens. It was great!





Okay, above this text are pictures of the day Mom and Kevin arrived. The first is of the gate we stared at for over an hour, waiting for them to come through the doors. There's also a picture of my birthparents. The third picture is one of the flowers we gave Mom. The last is the guy who created the flower arrangement. I liked him because so many Korean men that I've seen here are businessmen or shop owners or restaurant owners. This guy was creative and looked the part too. You can't see, but he has jeans on with holes in it.



These last pics are of brunch with Mom and Kevin and my birthfamily.
