Auto-Send Apologies

If I auto-send you these posts, I'm sorry about all the re-sends. I am still figuring out how to compose pictures & words and I am picky. You may have gotten that Everland post about thirteen-million times!

Everland Happy Halloween!

Everland is Korea's Disneyland theme park dealy-type place. It's located about 45 minutes outside of Seoul, in a tiny little town called Yongin. you can't see it until you actually get IN there, because it's nestled inside all those wonderfull sloping hills that makes up Korea's landscape. The theme was Halloween, and honestly, have you ever played Kingdom Hearts? I swear this place was built off those blueprints. I was walking around the first little "town" in there, and it was totally "traverse town" the place where the main character meets Donald and Goofy. There's a little cafe and a clocktower, and I was just imagining myself in giant shoes and holding a keyblade, fighting off black heartless creatures and doing cool flips off the rooftop awnings. Ah! just thinking about it makes me want to play the game! and to quote Joowon from the other night, "Gosh, Susan, I had no idea you were such a geek!" Well yes, Joowon, yes I am.
The rides were fun! We waited in line to ride the T-express for over two hours. It was the largest roller coaster I've ever been on. (the second time I've ever been to an amusement park) The jerky motions or upside-down moves aren't that bad, and it's not even really the falling that freaks me out, although it's scary. The scariest part is when you're being dragged in a downward motion sooooooooo fast, faster than you could physically fall, so as you're going down, you're also falling up. I HATE that part. ugh! Why do people do this to themselves? Why do I do it?

All of this line waiting had us acting a little crazy.

There was strange music in german town that had us doing the polka and bobbing around a lot. Cari and I got into a fake fight in the Rock and Roll line at "little America;" she pushed me & I ended up slapping her. All in good fun, I swear!Happy Slapsgiving everyone! ;D We texted our good friend William, who was on his way to San Francisco for the next few weeks. We sent him a month's worth of texts while waiting in line.
PS. Thanks to Joowon who took these lovely pictures!
