Hours before Midnight - New Years Eve 2007

I just woke up. Overcast weather outside. In the land of the morning calm, Korea is essentially sleeping. I havn't heard a peep today, since it is an official national holiday. Glad to hear from Dr. B. Sullivan and Slim Gene in Windsor. We did enough shopping in Myung Dong yesterday, today I am heading to the Seogwon Hotel. There's a full gym on the 6th floor. $3.00/day So there is little hesitation to go when I have free moments. Another great experience in Korea are visiting the Jinjil Bongs. They are 24 hour sauna/spas, they have huge stone tubs filled with steaming green tea or mineral water. Also, cold tank that resembles a small lap pool. Bring water you can easily dehydrate there; the dry sauna and wet sauna both relieve tension. Jin Jil Bongs are also accessible for overnight guests if you missed the last train from Seoul. These spas allow overnight sleeping in one of their rooms with heated floors, all this for $6.00!

The last Sunday of December, 2006

We had a great worship service at Dongsan Church today. The services are recorded and available to be seen at the following web address:

http://www.d21.org/ I will have to find out the actual link to the worship service.

You can toggle through the weeks to see different worship services. I was playing the bongos on Dec 17th and Dec 25th. This Sunday I played the drums. Patrick led the 17th and 31st services. He is a charismatic guy with a alot of praise talent, hometown in San Francisco, California.

We are off to Seoul today, taking the train to Dongdaemun or Myungdong. These are popular shopping areas with crowds in the 1000's. It'll be a trip, a short journey for the day. Our holidays finish tomorrow night. On Tuesday, we'll begin our intensive English teaching program.

I will wish everyone a Happy New Years tomorrow since we are 14 hours ahead in Korea.

Peace goes out to Slim Gene in Windsor and Mr. & Mrs. Pignanelli!
