So, it's been a while, eh? Work has been pretty intense this last week what with preparations for our new season (May and June, which officially begins next Wednesday) and rehearsals for the oft-referenced May 5th Children's Day extravaganza. Lots and lots of rehearsing, but it makes me happier than any job ever has. I've also been doing quite a bit of the Genie show (we had the CUTEST KIDS EVER today) and writing and revising new scripts for various projects.
Jeff is here visiting. He arrived last Friday morning and has been a truly courteous guest. He is adventurous, uninhibited and can absolutely fend for himself -- just the sort of guest you want to have generally, and especially when they are visiting while you've got a very full work week. I have to say, I am truly impressed, especially given his limited international travel experience. Tomorrow morning we are heading to Jeju, the sub-tropical, volcanic island off the southern coast of Korea which is also its own Korean province. Soooo excited. We are going to climb two mountains and explore some caves, and maybe even meet some of the crazy lady divers who collect shells and pearls and for whom Jeju is famous. Hurray for vacation!
Last night I went to a costume birthday party for a coworker. Said party was held not in the comfort of the village, but out at a restaurant. As if being western weren't enough to draw attention to us . . . People (including me) went all out with the costumes and the restaurant was amazing. Suffice it to say I got to eat guacamole. Oh yes.
Pictures and tales from the Jeju adventure to come. . .

You go, girl. This is why little Alena watched the Sound of Music video over and over, memorizing every lyric, .... so you can climb every mountain and sing when you get to the top. Remembering the Cranbrook Wilderness experience, please get you some good hiking boots,ok? Love from your ever vigilant Mom
