Vince,
They said they were reconfiguring the plane and said since this is my third trip with them, they bumped me up. It was
Business class nor first class. They had the door to the first class cabin closed and you could not get in. I really wanted to see what that was like. hehe
I did not see the showers in Seoul. next time. I will know.
Okay, Left Seoul 40 minutes late. they set me to this really cute Korean girl of 29. Who spoke English. We had a good time. She was funny. We ended up exchanging e mails and she may call Angel this week. She is sending me the phone pics we took. Because i know nobody would believe it. It must be that when I tell them I am engaged it gets their motors going or something. She asked me if I would show her Beijing. I told her only if Angel could come along. She said she would call. Yea.
Got in, not one check anywhere other than showing my passport to the entry guard. That is it. No temp taken, no x rays, nothing. I do not know if it was coming in from Korea or what. I was the only round eye on the plane. Everyone else was Asian. Got my 4 bags of luggage, yes four bags. One is filled with gifts though. Really it is. One whole large suitcase. But, I want to make a good impression on the new family. Got some cute new nieces who are 7 and 8 years old. took Scotts idea, and got them Yo yo's. Just as a little added thing. Thanks Scott. Found her out in the waiting area pacing back and forth. I saw her before she saw me. She looked worried. It did my heart good to see her. Anyway I took off down the ramp to where she was. Grabbed her and even though she was uncomfortable, I kissed her and swung her around. She laughed and said I was a crazy westerner. She had hired a car so the driver grabbed my luggage and off we went to our home. This is rally nice, she has done a great job with the little things making it ours. It is a really great place. 12th floor with one glassed in porch and one great window off of the living room giving a spectacular view of the city. I quickly grabbed a shower and off to bed. I really was exhausted. Like I said, none of your business. This morning we woke early and just lounged around in bed. I got the computer hooked up to our internet connection and am doing my updates while she is cooking breakfast. i can see her from where I am at. I cannot keep mind on what I am doing cause I see her being a wife. And it does my heart good. When we arrived last night it was dark out. About 5 am this morning I got up to get something to drink and walked out into the kitchen all nauralle looked up and saw my neighbor standing on his balcony not 5 feet away. I did a movie double take and shot back into the bedroom closing the door. I peeked out and he was just standing there staring at the spot I was just standing at. ( How to impress new neighbors. 101.) I do not know whether he was thinking he dreamed this, seeing some white guy standing in a kitchen naked or if he really saw it. I think I will really get some kitchen drapes today. Well, she is calling me in to eat. She wont let me do a thing. She said, go play on the computer while I do my job. I think I hit a home run. Except, she hasnt got the main ring on yet. Oh, by the way, they want you to drink everything hot. Even milk. Very, Very hard for me to do. But, I am keeping my mouth shut because “it is good for you”.
After breakfast she clued me into the weeks activities, I started grabbing the dishes, again. Go play with the computer. She is cleaning up and doing the dishes. Also doing laundry from yesterday. Guys, I am telling you I can get used to this. I love this woman. More in a couple of days.
