First day in Seoul
Angie has her last talk today, so the girls and I spent some time at the Seoul Science Park (map)
This was the leaning room. Reminded me of some places my family visited when I was a kid.

The road to Korea
Angie's already there, and Bee, Frankie and I started our journey to Seoul today.
First there was the bus
Then we got bagels at the airport. The cinnamon bagel poppers were a big hit!
Here we are on the plane, I told the girls they were angels the whole way...
Not too much Korea just yet, but FYI, Swallows beat the Tigers today in ipad baseball FYI. Yeah, it was a 8-1 walk in the park for the Swallows, whose team captain, Barbara, really needs to find some better competition.
In celebration, barbara wrote the Swallows theme song. Here it is:
Swallows are going to win
They tickle everyone
They eat mosquitoes
Swallows win! Swallows win!
Some actual Korea pictures tomorrow...

Looks like Frankie won the vote! Run Frankie Run!
OK, here are a few pics from our garden. Its sort of pathetic looking this year. Its a combo of Cho Cho digging up alot of the greens, and me experimenting with new things to see what will grow and what wont. The Swiss Chard did really well this year, but we ate it all. The kale. Not so good. Not sure why. We love kale, too. Oh well. the tomatoes looks good and the cucumber looks good too. The broccoli grew but the heads so small and then they turn to flower. Any idea on how to make those things grow a bit bigger? The eggplant wilted a bit. the onions, lettuce, basil and pumpkin were either eaten by visitors or dug up by cho cho. We are enjoying the cucumbers now. I think you can grow those in your sleep so i wont take any credit for that!
