Seoul, Part 2

I'm sitting in the same internet cafe as I did on the way here-- in the Seoul airport. Only this time, I'm anticipating the 14 hour flight as opposed to having it behind me. :)

We were bumped from our 1:50AM flight to a 3:20AM flight. It didn't matter in the long run since we're on the same flight out of Seoul. I'm not sure I remember much of the flight from Bangkok-- I was asleep for most of it.

I sat next to this 13 year old Korean boy, which ended up being fun. When the safety video came on, I had my eyes closed. (How many times have I seen that?!) He noticed that, then tapped me and pointed to the TV. I had to smile and yes, I did watch the safety video. Later, he was asking me where I was from. When I told him America, he got this big smile on his face and and excitedly announced it to his brother sitting behind him. He told me he was from Korea and that he was thirteen years old. I asked him his name, which he told me and I can't remember now. Then, he asked my name. When I told him, he said, "It is a very beautiful name." He was a very sweet little guy.

I know I haven't posted much about the trip in a long time. I promise that I will when I get home and regroup. Suffice it to say, the trip was a grand success and I'm so grateful for the experience. I believe we passed out 100,000 tracts and received about 330 response cards. Pray for Jeff and Theresa Lange-- they have SO much work ahead of them, and I'm sure they're exhausted from the group being there.

So, a happy, but tired hello to all my loved ones. I'll be home soon! I did miss you guys while I was gone.

Love to all--
