so much to catch up on!
I've been wanting to post about the last week before I forget it all. So many major events have happened, that I've wanted to keep a written record of it all before it evaporates out of my brain.

Friday, June 3rd, 2011 [[ 10am in Korea-land ]]
We left the house at 10am to grab something quick to eat. The airport bus was scheduled to leave at 10:30am from E-Mart, so we were running late. Luckily, Su-Hyeon had called and offered to drive us to the bus terminal earlier in the morning. I'm so glad that he did because I soon realized that moving the bags turned out to be a much greater feat than expected. Had we needed to walk the block to the taxi stand, it would have not been very fun and we would have definitely missed the bus. Su-Hyeon blazed through the streets of Chuncheon (Actually, no. We spent most of our time sitting at the eternal red lighted intersections of Chuncheon) and we arrived with 1 minute to spare. Brian and I climbed on the bus, waved our good-byes to Su-Hyeon and settled in for the 3 hour ride to the Incheon International Airport.
We had plenty of time to wait for our flight at the airport; it wasn't until 5:05pm. It was a 12 hour flight was from Incheon to San Francisco. I slept through minuscule portions of it and spent (most of) the rest of the time watching terrible, terrible movies. When we landed in San Francisco, it took me ages to get through immigration (since I'm not American), so Brian had retrieved our bags by the time I got through. Then we had to go through security again. I had no trouble, I actually went to line up at the giant death body scanner cause I didn't know where to go, but the lady waved me through around the scanner.
We had a two hour layover and had Burger King while waiting for our connecting flight. And I had Barq root beer! I had forgotten all about Barq :) The flight from San Francisco to Orlando took about 5 hours. It was around 10pm when we landed and Brian's friends Rob and Amber had come to pick us up at the airport and to drive us to his sister's house about an hour away. By the time we got it, it was past midnight and we had been travelling for a total of 26 hours. Needless to say, we were very, very tired. But unfortunately, I couldn't get to sleep and was up all night. Brian's dad's wedding was the next day..
