I saw three boys in the car, right? I don't know why kids got excited to go through the car wash machine like them without any reasons..<br /><br />I used to go temples with my grandmother (father side) frequently when I was little before third grade.. She used to be a Buddhist, well not exactly believing in something. She just got some helps for family matters from monks and people there. So I hung out with monks and had a chance to glimpse their lives. Their daily life is all planned and ritual somewhat. As you may know, monks cannot eat meat and don't use any oil in their foods. But their foods are very delicious and exquisite. I miss the serene atmosphere in temples there - bell sounds, water etc... very comforting. <br /><br />Hope you will have a good week in your school!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10419204276078604976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7746748686244495382.post-91723409609206087692009-09-20T12:53:26.542-07:002009-09-20T12:53:26.542-07:00Hi Amy, just getting caught up on your last few da...Hi Amy, just getting caught up on your last few day's and continue to laugh until I cry at your stories. I am just picturing your face when the pastor yell's out your name, and what your face must have looked like coming out of your kung fu fog. We give you so much credit for all the experiences you try, with no hesitation. Heck, some of us cannot figure out the CTA let alone the bus system in South Korea. Sounds like the Lions club ladies are quite a wild bunch. Are you going to have your ETA friends come visit your mountain town one weekend? That could be a shock to them and your town. Hope you have resolved the bug issue, and if we can send you anything to help, just say the word. <br /><br />Take care, and we will try and call you soon. So hard to get the timing right, and would hate to wake up the family.<br /><br />Love you,<br /><br />AS & UJSandy and Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06785765755858685362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7746748686244495382.post-57357628971712169652009-09-20T11:52:44.356-07:002009-09-20T11:52:44.356-07:00Hi Amy.

You know what they say: Simple pleasures are the best. I was laughing hysterically when I read the part about the church service.. Love and miss you.

Maybe it's a temporary situation. Thanks for sharing the fun weekend experience.ykimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16409262473521197052noreply@blogger.com
