We said goodbye to Thailand on June 2. Our plane left a little after midnight. We are currently in Seoul, South Korea on a 10 hour lay over. (Thanks to "Samsung" Free Wi-Fi center and I am able to update this blog while waiting!)
I was super sad leaving Thailand. I didn't realized how much I actually loved this country! I looked out the plane window after take off and didn't stop looking until the lights from the city disapeared. I just kept reminding myself how blessed I am to have had such a great experience. God has taught and showed me so much during this time!
Our travles are going well so far...thank you for all the prayers! Korean Airline is amazing, and the people are so friendly. Last night before heading on the plane we got some snack money from our leader so Josh enjoyed some french fries from Burger King and I enjoyed some ice cream from Dairy Queen. One of my favorite things I have enjoyed and I think I am going to miss is small talking with Thai people. No one else was getting ice cream at the time I was ordering. There were about four girls working and they all kept smiling at me. So, my favorite thing to do is ask them questions in English because they love practicing English. We laughed and talked for about 5 min, I had so much fun! I did the same thing after security had to go through my carry on after I accidntly left my bug spray in my carry-on bag...oops. Josh just rolled his eyes and me, but I just laughed and blessed to know that God allowed me to enjoy my last few moments in the country interacting with the people.
We arrived in Seoul, Korea about 5:00am this morning and slept on the benches in the airport untill 10:30ish. Then Josh and I explored and walked around the airport. Ate some Subway for lunch...tasted so good!
Well, we are about to head to Seattle now...back to the States! Before you know it we will be home :)
See you soon!
