April Temple Day










We love the Seoul Temple-Angel Moroni with the Magnolia Blossoms turned out great-The Temple visits is one of the Main Highlights of our Mission here in Korea. At the Temple we met 5 Elders that were getting ready to go Home-I still need to emal the picture to each of them.
We met the Previous Elder Park on the streets and he now is Brother Park - he has only been home for a week or two. We stopped by a flower shop-Le Anns and she is a member-we had fun talking to her because she speaks very good English. Just a few other pictures-We really liked the EggStar Photo!!! The Dental Building reminded us of Shelly's Husband Mark who is a Dentist!!

Camp Market-Incheon Korea



















Camp Market was an Army Camp used by General McArthur-The District has permission to use the area for Girls camp. Sister Egbert and Myself visited with Mr. Baily and Mr. McKee to make sure everything was ready for the 9th of April. They bent over backwards to make sure the area was ready for the dsitrict girls and leaders. The closest subway stop to Camp Market is Bupyeong-down 7 more subway stops is Jaru Park-or Freedom Hill. This is where General McArthur's Statue and other Memorials are located. Walking up the hill from the Subway you walk through an area called China town-very interesting-it was a great day we accomplished a lot!!

Chongdo Bull Fighting Festival













We started the day by supporting the Bake Sale on Camp Walker-Then with Brian and Luz we went just South to a little town called Chongdo. We had missed the Festival last year but this year it worked out better. We were really impressed with the size of the Arena and the calmness of the Bulls. They were massive-it wasn't a Bullfight it was more like a Bull Wrestling -they would butt heads then for 15 or 20 minutes push and shove till one got tired then he was defeated!!
