Arrived at Incheon

After 13 and 1/2 hours in the air, a quick stop in Sydney, and some really great service on Asiana airlines, we have made it to South Korea. We were excited to sit next to South Korean missionaries on their way from Auckland to Beijing for a missions trip. They were encouraging and gave us a bit of a run down on culture etc...So, This place is amazing. It's so high tech, and organised. I was excited to see there was a good variety of American restaurants in the airport that they don't have in NZ. We've been greeted all ready by many neon crosses scattered all over the place marking the thousands of churches in this country.

We quickly discovered that language is a real barrier, and we're having to be very careful with our choice of words, keeping English very simple. No room for slang.

In a few minutes, we're headed back to the airport, on to a train, and then onto our domestic flight to Jeju Island. We feel good to be here.
