TYPICAL KOREAN HOME

This past Sunday, I was given an opportunity to see inside a typical Korean home in Seoul.  Amanda's adoptive father (Randy) knows a man here in Seoul that he used to work with at 3M. The man invited all of us to his house after dinner for tea and dessert.  We met his lovely wife and their twin daughters.

  Shoes obviously are left at the door.


Here is the livingroom, the cream colored appliance in the right corner (looks like a refridgerator) is an air conditioner - which is VERY MUCH needed in the summer in Korea!

Here is the kitchen, which by Korean standards is quite large (believe it or not). 


Korean's tend to do everything with style.  They don't just cut up fruit for dessert, they place it beautifully on the plate...presentation is EVERYTHING.  That's Amanda's birth father.

Everyone is enjoying tea, coffee and fruit around the table.

Cutie 10-year-old twins!

With a little coaxing from Amanda, one of the twins showed us her hoola-hooping skills!
