The Beginning of the End

And now, the countdown is officially underway. 

Tim and I spent the past weekend in Seoul which marked the beginning of a list of trips, events and calendar dates that ends with 'HOME!'.

Tim was busy with a CrossFit Certification course ( in which he was the class star, of course) while I busied myself running, shopping, eating, and half-heartedly sight seeing a few places I had missed during our other 2 trips to the city. 

one of the many side-ventures on my 10km-turned-15km run to Olympic park.

orange, melty popsicle = maybe the best thing i've ever tasted.

yaaaaaay!

an anniversary meal for 2. eaten by 1.

tourist trip to an old japanese-run prison (Seodamun Prison).

where i spent 20% of the weekend. 

kindle break in tapgol park, near insadong.

Next on the docket are three days of work before departing Busan again and leaving Korea for the first time since we arrived last year.  We will be guests in the old Japanese capital of Kyoto for a few days during our much needed, highly anticipated summer vacation. 

When we return to the Land of the Morning Calm following our vacation, there are but 8 short weeks until we are jobless, homeless travellers, embarking on the next phase of life... whatever it turns out to be:) 

Wow!
