Korea-The arrival

So we're here,
We arrived after a nice 22 hours of travel. Thanks for the drugs Katie. We were only conscious for about 3 hours of a ten hour flight from Vancouver to Osaka, Japan. From there it was smooth sailing. We hung out in the Osaka airport for a couple of hours. Which, by the way, was more awesome than one would think. Best airport experience of my life. It was the first time I ever felt like I was seeing something just by being in an airport. We watched Japanese television on a nice gigantic flat screen. They love to hit each other in the face. They're a lot like my friends. We also met some Korean Americans from Atlanta. They were really nice and taught us how to say important things like the names of Korean alcohols and "I just had a heart attack." After the wonderful world of Japanese airport land we moved onto the wonderful world of Japanese air travel. Yes, we had sushi on the plane and our own touch screen TV's. Ashley watched 'Friends,' I watched world cup soccer and we could have played video games but we don't drink soda or read in Japanese. So we had that. However, when we finally touched down in Incheon we were spent. But, we still had an hour bus ride to Seoul. That was fun. Ashley's seat had a mind of its own. It reclined at its leisure. Other than that, LOTS of Haundai's and fluorescent lights. Jesus is pink here. We saw multiple crosses blaring their luminescence with pink fluorescent missionary flair. I don't know why that enthralled us so, but it did so live with it. I wrote about it. We got to Seoul City Air Terminal finally where we met up with our company HR representative. He put us in a Taxi out to the youth hostel we are now staying at which is about an hour and a half outside of Seoul. Taxi ride was pretty uneventful until the driver decided he was going to teach us Korean: "America--Goo Morning, Goo Aftanoon, Goo night. Korean-anyang ha say yo" which he repeated at least a double digit amount. He told Ashley "Gooood" when she repeated, so she's got that going for her. Then he proceed to tell me and a fellow teacher, Cory, how to get girls. SMILE! (with spirit fingers). This he also repeated in no less than a double digit amount. So we now speak a little Korean. We're getting all settled in and having fun. We'll write more soon.
