South Korea
On friday July 7th, at 7:40 a.m. I took off on a trip of a life time to live with my husband in South Korea. I landed in Incheon, South Korea on July 8th, at 5:45 p.m., talk about a long flight. If you ever fly to Asia, I highly recommend Singapore airlines. The staff was extremely friendly, and they feed you non-stop. Instead of making me endure the 3 hour bus ride to Camp Casey (aka home), Geoff booked a room at the Dragon Hill Inn. The Inn is located in Yong San, an army base in Seoul. Unlike army bases in the U.S. (where the base is located right out side of the town) the army bases here are in the center of the towns. You can walk out of the gates at Yong San and walk into one of the largest shopping disticts in Seoul. How convenient. It is very green and mountainous here. We are in the rainy season right now, and the humidity is equivalent to that in New Orleans. It also doesn't smell that great here. I expected it to be alot more rural here, but its not.
The garden was at the Dragon Hill. Infact these pictures don't even do this garden justice. It was so beautiful and relaxing. Maybe that was because the Hotel was like a 4 star hotel. The more I get out and about the more I will have to say about this place. Right now I am just fascinated by this entire experience.

From Dad: Lacey these pictures are great. I was able to open them up in a new window and then open to the full screan and I could really see how it looks over in Korea. Maybe you can send us more pictures of Soul and your new home once you get settled in. I like the new Blog and it is a wonderful way to show us all about your new home and the way you live.
Call me tomorrow.
Love
Dad
THE PICTURES ARE GREAT AND CAN'T WAIT TO SEE MORE OF KOREA. I WILL CALL YOU LATER ONCE I FIGURE OUT THE TIME SITUATION. CHARLIE IS BRINGING HOME OUR LACEY CLOCK TONIGHT. LOVE YA'LL MUCH!!!
I need a "Lacey Clock" too! Great idea. Sorry to call you so early in the morning yesterday; I forgot about the time change. Please post pictures of your apartment.
Lacey,
This is Claire and Melissa. We're reading your sight and looking at the pictures. It's making us feel like we are there with you. How neat to feel connected with you across the world.
Lacey,
What great pictures! I think that Geoff has done a masterful job with the interior decorating. The bed covering reminds me of one of my favorite shows,"Wild Kingdom." Geoff, if you need any help with picking out new colors for your new pad (70's style wording), you can count on me and my sharp,keen,color blind eyes, to guide you to not only an adoring spread in Southern Living, but also the cover.
Lacey I am glad that you arrived safely and I want you to know that I enjoyed seeing you while you were home. The fireworks weren't that great, but the company was. You and Geoff be careful and remember that the Waldrop family loves both of you and that we will be praying for ya'll. I realize that I don't allow people to know how I feel about them, but you and Geoff are special people to me and my family.
Sorry this turned into a letter instead of just a comment but it hit me while I was looking at your pictures that I needed to tell both of you that I Love ya'll.
Love,
Roman
