After posting our pictures from Korea, we've gotten a few comments that we're starting to look alike.

When we landed in Jeju, our tour guide was waiting for us holding up a placard with our names. A little background, but Korean people don't change their names when they get married. I did.

Our tour guide assumed we were brother/sister because we have the same last name. And now I'm thinking possibly because we look alike?

It wasn't until he asked us for our passport information that he realized Danny was older than me. He thought Danny was my younger brother. Talk about adding insult to injury.

I picked up a good stash of face masks while I was out in Korea. You better believe that'll become a regular part of my skin care routine from now on.

quick thoughts on korea

What a tiring trip. I think I was more tired during "vacation" than I was while working.

We traveled by plane, train, automobile, and subway. We were gonna ride a boat, but weather got the best of us.

We went on a tour group to Jeju Island. The different tour spots tried to sell us things like cloned ginseng and horse bones. We did buy some chocolate.

Seriously, there are no napkins in Korea. How do people stand it?

People are so amazed that I can eat Korean food. Little do they realize that Koreatown in Los Angeles has pretty much everything they have to offer.

Even in Korea, I look Chinese.
