I'm still recovering from my weekend hike. Desperately needing to get out of my tiny apartment and kill time, I decided to climb Bukhansan Mountain. I was a bit intimidated when I noticed my company decked out with hiking boots, backpacks, gloves and poles, mats, sweat rags and handkerchiefs but decided to give it a whirl anyway. The more difficult it got, the more I was telling myself that it couldn't be that much longer; I was this far into it I might as well go all the way. I was glad I did, not only because it was an amazing view but because most of Saturday was then over. Time over here has been painfully slow. I've been struggling for interaction and things to move the days along. When I reached the bottom once again some old man gave me a bottle of Korean vodka for a dollar. Who can beat that? I've been to the mountains before, but only one other time did I actually hike up one, and that was in Ireland. This one was a bit steeper I believe, but Ireland won my heart over for good.

Stay safe, Cassi.
It looks like you are having fun. What else would you like to have to help pass the time? Do you have a TV and/or a dvd player? Please let me know if there is anything you need, or if there is anything I can do to help in any way.
We are all thinking about you and enjoy reading your blogs.
Hugs..Aunt Patti
