We have lived in Korea for 14 months now, and we have hardly gotten out of the Seoul area and into the rest of Korea. Well, that’s about to change! This weekend through Wednesday is the Korean Thanksgiving holiday called Chuseok. We have work off, the motorcycle is tuned up, and we’re blowing this popsicle stand!

Tomorrow evening, we’ll drive up to Paju to stay the night at English Village, then we’ll set off with our friend Bill on our motorcycles for the east coast town of Gangneung in the Gangwan-do province.

This is not only our first adventure into the rest of Korea but also our first road trip on the motorcycle. I’m really looking forward to the wind in my face, the fresh mountain air, and a dip in the ocean. A generous Korean family that we met has made hotel reservations for us. I love Seoul, but I am so excited about a nice break from the noise, pollution, and crowds of the big city. It’ll also be nice to spend time with our friend Bill.

Pray for blue skies! We’ll take lots of pictures and let you know how it goes!
