i hear that bundang is like the paris of korea (joke).
on sunday my social prospects improved dramatically when miss cindy arrived in seoul. born here but away for the past 30 years, she's back to fulfill a 2-year teaching contract (not english!) and to connect with family and the motherland. we go way back and our tandem goofiness knows no bounds.
this electronic progress report reminded me of hong kong international airport's train. i was giddy to see that one day soon it will reach my vicinity.
nearly 7 hours of sunday was spent fetching cat #2 and a missing bag from the korean air cargo and passenger terminals. each of the subway, shuttle bus, airport limousine and taxi legs and pit stops in-between were smooth thanks to cindy's papers being in order and very pleasant airport personnel. along the way, we took the "arex" airport train for the first time between gimpo and incheon airports. it was a little slow, but clean and well-done. yea korea.
now that my sister of another mother has landed, let the circus begin!

look who dragged in the cat!
