First Day in Ulsan!

We got to Ulsan late Monday night. Then, Mike got up the next morning and headed to work. They let him come home around 2 pm. We spent the morning unpacking and washing. Then, when he came home, he took us on a walk to some of the shopping area outside our compound. We ended up at the Hyundai Department Store and a walking park that was across the street. I am striving to walk more everyday. Hopefully, none of you in the states will recognize me when I get back!!!

One of Mike's dear friends from work, Mr. Chinn, volunteered to take us to Homeplus (a four story mega Walmart with a kid play area and food court). Mike will get his car today with a pass for the shipyard and compound. We are going on our big shopping trip tonight back to Homeplus.

Thanks for all the prayers. We are really loving it so far. We begin every morning with breakfast together and prayer before Mike leaves for work. What a difference prayer makes!!!

  1. Hi Karen!
    I'm Barb Viner and I'm Carlette Bonnette's daughter. She told me about your move and your blog. Just started reading and wanted you to know that I'll be praying for you and your family. Our family moved to New Zealand nearly one year ago so I can so relate about living in a foreign country, far away from friends and family. At least here they speak English (sort of. lol). Our middle son is from South Korea and I spent a week in Seoul in 2000 when I went to get him.
    I'm a blogger about our adventures too: theviner8.blogspot.com
    Anyway, just wanted to tell you that you're not alone and would love to chat sometime!
    Blessings,
    Barb
