Cherry Blossoms








Spring has arrived and the cherry blossoms are in full bloom. Lori and I took a quick picture taking trip to the fortress in Sacheon on Friday. Going to see the cherry blossoms is an annual event and festivals are held everywhere. The most popular is in Chinhae and we had planned to take the kids but since we just returned from vacation and this weekend is Easter we decided to stay close to home.

I know these pictures are going to make all you ex-expats wish you were back in Korea!


This time of year also marks the anniversary of my blog and the beginning of our Korean Adventure. This time last year we were celebrating Easter without Bob while he was taking pictures of the cherry blossoms. Every Saturday night was reserved for talking to Dad using Skype. I was obsessed with grocery shopping for our shipment to Korea and the kids were anxious about the big move. . I remember how tough is was for the kids to connect with their Dad over the phone and how hard it was to parent on my own. I remember feeling scared and excited and that my teenagers hated us for making them move.

Our lives have changed so much over the last year. I hope we can look back at this time years from now and be happy with the decisions we made.

Great shots!

Is it exotic to live in another country? the best thing is that you have family with you and this means a lot whereever you stay.
