Korea

So, as many of you know, my Father is stationed in Korea for a year; he's about halfway through now. My Mother has been there for the past week and a half, visiting.

If you click on the picture, you can see a larger version.

A park. I believe this is where they bury the Kimchi.





A Folk Village?


Mom and Dad. Smiles indicate that no Kimchi had been consumed yet that day.


Ceremonial Garb. No Kimchi relation.





I believe this is the DMZ.

Mom and Dad indicate that the DMZ was very odd... North Korean guards are 8 meters (about 25 feet, or across the room) from you, staring back.


Mom at a folk village.


Seoul Tower. It's like the Space Needle, but at the restaurant at the top, they serve Kimchi.

Museum.

Palace. It's like the Forbidden City, except they serve Kimchi at the top.


Ceremonial Kimchi Urn.





A temple in Korea...







A statue. Korea is blessedly pigeon free, apparently.


My Parents interacting with the Indigineous Peoples. Apparently they didn't make any smart-ass Kimchi remarks.
