Dedicated to my friends who never get spring continued...

Korean women are smart when it comes to protecting their skin. Some even have visors that not only protect their face, but act as sunglasses as well.


Seoul has terrible air quality. You see people wearing these surgical masks all the time.



No, its not raining, this is to keep the sun off your face as well.



These ladies are weeding. For some reason, they don't spray in these huge parks, they get rid of the pesky weeds the old fashioned way. Korean women can squat like this...it is kind of a fetal position I have also seen them assume this position while waiting for subway, even the elderly can squat. Which reminds me of a discussion I had with a Korean friend about their toilets, but this subject is spring, so I will save that one for another time.

If you enlarge this picture of the little girl in green you can see she has already learned the offical photo pose of most all Koreans here {sideways peace sign}


The mom spied a carp in the water while she is fishing.


Ahh, the bike can finally come out of the parking garage.

You aren't kidding about high altitude Spring, it's slow. Today we saw the aspen trees budding a lovely GREY. To see flowers we go to walmart with 3 Easter varieties or better yet, your beautiful blog. Keep taking it all in, except maybe the air.
