The meals were also very interesting...she had rice and kimchi with every meal as usual















During her stay she had to get some injections and had to have her IV changed...notice all of this was done with out gloves, also the photo with all the gloves hanging on the rack was the RE-USABLE gloves from surgery....yes i said reusable. "very interesting"




































This is Niva just before surgery and just after..i was standing right outside the surgical room that was wide open for all to see inside.

Nivard at the hospital











One of my co-workers Nivard had to go to the hospital to have surgery done. She spent three days and two nights in hospital and I stayed with her the first night. It was a very interesting experience, I think the pictures will say it all. The first picture is of Niva in her room with me. By the way this was an 'expensive' room.

Andrea's birthday














































We went to a very tasty fish restaurant for one of my co-workers birthday. The meal was delicious as well as the cake afterward.

English village cont'
























































English Village is very picturesque...It is owned by the Korean government but run by the SDAs. One of the famous Korean soap operas is filmed there "Ggot poda namja" (Boys over flowers) dont ask me why the weird title. While we were there there were filming a scene and the korean guy is one of the actors in that movie. The other people are friends

English Village
















Last weekend over 300 hundred foreign teachers that are teaching for SDA Language Institiutes all over Korea got together at Yangpyeong English Village for a weekend retreat. It was great fun although the days were long with training sessions. The talent show was awesome!!!
