My Apologies!

I have been so tired this past week and haven't felt much like writing. I feel like I've been leaving you in the dark!

Here are a few awesome pictures to hold you over while I write my next few posts. I'm working on them right now, so they should be out soon!



This is me in front of a work of art! Seriously! This elephant was made by a Korean artist, and it's wearing high heels! Pink ones, too! I'm not sure of the story behind it as the description was entirely in Korean. But I thought it was cool!



Amy and I playing in the mud! On camera! For the news! REALLY! I don't have a tv and I'm not sure which station it was, but we were videotaped by this man for a good 4 minutes just playing in the mud! We even had speaking parts! He asked us what it felt like, and Amy said cookie dough! That's very accurate, too. It felt like we were stepping in cookie dough, sans chocolate chips. It was awesome!



This is me crossing a river on granite stones! Don't ask me how I did it. I was terrified the entire way. I should note, however, that although I was terrified and couldn't look up and away from the stones where my feet were, everyone else just hopped and skipped across just fine. And it's funny that after a day of almost 15km walking around Mt. Gyejok getting dropped off on the wrong side and climbing at almost an 85 degree steepness, after not passing out and not falling off the edge, THIS was the thing that made me the most terrified! hahaha



Do you see that all the way on the other side? WAY far over there? We were over there. Amy, Maggie and myself. ALL the way on the other side of that valley. And that was only after walking about 6km to get there! And of course at that point, we hadn't yet met the main group of marathoners. So those two medals I got from both 'prize' booths afterwards? I totally deserve both of them.



I thought I'd also throw in a group picture from the Naju tour I did on April 23, 2011. I just got it in an email from the GIC a few days ago. Can you spot me?
