Taking a break
Stopping for a break
So happy
Look what I got

Digging under the rocks
Crowded

Catfish?
We left the convenience store and made our way to small creek that was supposedly well known for its fresh spring drinking water. I was going to try the water, but heard it tasted strange, so I passed. We walked around this area for awhile and started watching people try to catch these catfish like fish. I think the fish were released for people to catch, but regardless people were having a great time. They were searching under rocks, diving under the water, and generally just having a great time. We walked down the creek and then took a trail on the other side of the creek to make our way back to the car. We then made our way to a great cave which will come in part 4.

A Great Call

I spoke to my dad last night around 1 or 2 am Korea time and was given the message that mom was doing much better. I called it a night and crashed out.

This morning around 8am I was awoken by the sound of my cellphone singing. My mother was on the line, but it took me a few extra seconds to 1. wake up 2. recognize her voice. I believe that she was still on some pain medicine, but she really sounded fine and didn’t remember anything from the day of the surgery. She has been moved from ICU to her own room, so hopefully she will be able to go home in the next 4 or 5 days. I look forward to being able to talk to her when I am fully awake. I went back to sleep after speaking with her for just a few minutes and when I woke up, I thought for a second that it might be a dream.

In other news, we made another visit to the dentist. JJ had one of her wisdom teeth taken out and I got prepped for my crown. It was so nice to be able to sit in the dentist’s office waiting room and check my email via the computer set up in the waiting room for clients.
