A picture taken just the other day out by the ocean.  We rode our bikes down to the fishing village and took some fun pictures.  A little editing in photoshop.  I really love this one :)

Kate kissing a cow at a school picnic last week.  We went to our school bus driver’s farm/restaurant.  It was a lot of fun – and Kate loved these cows :)

I took this photo at sunset near the expo center in Samcheok.  This is actually the reflection in the river which gives it a cool texture – it’s flipped as well.

Two of our 5th graders during children’s day celebrations at school.  The one in front is one of our favorites.. he’s really sweet.   

Thats all for now…

We’ll be posting more pictures very soon and hopefully an update or two on what we’ve been up do.  (Mainly school activities)  We’re heading to Japan in a few weeks so that should be fun! 

More soon,

Chad

I’ve updated our photo pages with some old pictures and our more recent adventures.  Either click the links below to go to the galleries or click Photos on the left hand side and select which album you’d like to view.  The newest albums are last in each category.  

I’ve finally uploaded the photos from Langkawi so you can see the engagement cruise and the beautiful island.  

Enjoy,

Chad

[Sorry to anyone who received any random emails from spicyfishy the other day.  Was a test gone wrong Please forgive me.. ]

Two weekends ago Kate and I went to Seoul for a Gustav Klimt Exhibit.  We left Friday night after school and headed off to the big city for 2 nights.  We packed a lot into our time and here are a few pictures from our adventures.  

We met up with some friends in Itaewon for a farewell dinner as they headed off for new adventures the next day.   Got there a lot later than we wanted to due to a longer than usual bus ride and some misread subway signs, but we made it nonetheless.  Luckily we had no plans for Saturday so we got to sleep in and recover from the long week at school and travels.   

We had a few goals for the weekend – Go to the Klimt exhibit, look at prices on DSLR cameras, Shop for some new clothes, and maybe go to see a show or ballet.  We accomplished all this and more!

Saturday was spent shopping like crazy in Myeong-dong and Namdaemoon.  We had never been to this area but really loved it!  Lots of great stores and interesting clothes as well as some standards like the Gap, Forever 21 (for Kate), Nike, Addidas, and an unexpected American Apparel.  Aside from American Apparel we ended up getting most of our new swag at korean stores, but it was fun to go to familiar stores.  From there we headed over to Namdaemoon for some Camera Shopping.  Enter the pictures…. – right after I bought my Canon Kiss F (Japanese model of the Rebel Xti/400D)!!!  I got a great deal on a used model – got him to throw in a stabilized lens, a case, screen/lens protectors, extra battery and a 4gb memory card!  I’m really happy with it.  Here is what it can do … and be sure to checkout all the pictures from the trip here.

This is the shop where I bought my camera.  It’s part of this mega camera mall with lots of small shops.  Fun to browse – a pain to actually buy though, as everyone is trying to get your business and trying to undersell each other. [Read more →]
