Week three began perfectly...a beautiful Monday morning here in South Korea. We visited a Kumho Tire manufacturers, then a beautiful lunch, great soup today and company. We concluded our day with a chairlift ride up one of the local mountains. The view was spectacular and there was much time for thought and reflection. We also got in some exercise as we climbed a little higher than the chairs brought us to get to our viewpoint. Good company as always, Mr. Shin brought along his 13 year old daughter for the day. She was shy, very beautiful and helped to create the peaceful atmosphere...he was a good man, quiet, full of smiles and appreciation...
Tomorrow we are back to mountain climbing. The famous mountain here in Gwanju is named Meudung Mountain, and I think we will be summiting the mountain, or at least climbing pretty high. Either way, pictures to follow...and I will learn more about the history...
Today's picture is of the greenhouse that we visited today. There were many rows of green plants and foloaige. It reminded me of flying into Waterloo irport in June, landing on a sea of green squares, each one a different shade and size, all equally important...
I hope the corn is commin up well, and the Spring breezes are blowing on the Island...
This time til next time, LETS GO METS!!!
