What's happening around Bundang and Seoul....



Many different exotic flowers around.....



Last Friday night out for some Korean BBQ, a new foreign teacher has arrived, Travis on the lower right. Then counter clockwise.....Simon, Alice, and Gomi.....



Tasty....



Ryan and Cathy....



I always wondered how people move in and out of these apartment buildings.....very long lifts!



Some protests in Seoul over "Mad Cow" and President Lee Myung Bak.....
This march was at 11pm on a Saturday night....1,000's of people walking through Seoul....



Well, we had a raining Friday, Saturday and Sunday due to a typhoon Kalmaegi that hit nationwide. This is the local Tancheon flowing big, the most water since I have lived here....



Possible play spot for the kayak....hmm.....a little bit lower and it may be good to go!



Very ugly low head dam.....with about 20' of backwash....



The water was river bank high.....Almost up onto the walking path.....



Another potential surf~play spot.....Looks like a nice glassy wave.....



DeokSuGung Palace at night, located in the middle of Seoul...



Seokjojeon at night.....within the Palace. This stone building was used by Emperor Gojong during the time of the Great Korean Empire in the early 1900's.....

The Art of Cartier has been in Seoul at the DeokSuGung Art Museum....
Cool Exhibit....





Some photographs of Jewelry.....






The U.S. Embassy in Seoul. Recently, I had to renew my passport due to it's expiration this coming December. 10 years and all the pages are full with stamps and visas. I was happy to be able to keep it. Hopefully I will be able to fill in all the pages of my new one within the next 10 years. 2018....wow...that is weird to write!



Another Art Center, this one near City Hall and the U.S. Embassy......
