SEOUL SURPRISE!!!!!
While in Seoul this past weekend, both Yvon and I were slapped in the face with such a wonderful suprise! Our friend from Ottawa, Adam, though he is best known to us as Gibbs, asked us to meet up with a friend of his living in Seoul. As we waited....and waited at the subway stop we agreed on, we nearly lost our patience and left..until, from across the street, we spotted....GIBBS!!!!!!!!!! It was amazing! After the shock wore off and we started talking, he let us know that he has been here a month and is working in the northern part of the country for the next year! He has been waiting for the right time to surprise us, and though it didn't work out as well as he wanted...I was very surprised and I think I needed it. I think I needed to see a familiar face, someone who could share stories of people we both know. It lifted my spirits so much. THANK YOU GIBBS!!!!!
Though we don't have many pictures of our weekend in Seoul, as we were more captivated by the North, that and my camera's batteries died, here are some shots that we took.
