Can you tell I’m going to miss Marie when she goes to school? I decided that she and I (and some of mommy’s grown-up friends) would go overnight to Korea. There is a “hop” that goes on Monday and comes back on Tuesday. Military perks at their best.
It was a simple but great trip. And holy-cow is it easy to travel with a 5-year-old! She loves to fly and loves to shop so we were in heaven. I hope this is the first of many great girl trips.
We found a candy machine on-base that sells full bags of fun size candy bars. Good to know if you run out at Halloween.
Some might think its a bad thing that McDonalds is in every country. I’ve found it a huge blessing. I could go without the cheap toys, but its good to know I can fill my kids up and get “happy kids” in the end.
We shopped up and down the Korean streets right off-base. We picked up Grandparents some solid Christmas presents and Marie got this headband and a doll for Mina. She was so proud of herself for picking it out for mina and buying it for her. And by buying it, it means Mommy bought it, but hey- when your five it’s all the same right?
That’s my girl!
