These dogs are curled up in a little ball.


What is on this weekend? It's colder than shit here, the wind is blowing through the windows of the hotel. Google says it's 7 F here, with the wind chill, it is colder than that by quite a bit, but they don't report wind chill in Korea.

Got here Wednesday evening after a long flight, from Minny apple less through Tokyo.
Jet lag is tough to deal with, Seoul is 14 hrs ahead of home time. Screws up my sleeping and my appetite, typically don't eat dinner for 3-4 days after arrival. Yesterday I had all day meetings with HR for Asia in the business, really nice person, great ideas it was excellent to meet with him. Then I walked back to the hotel and had a couple of Korean beers, and sampled the potato wedges and calimari rings off the "wonder hour" spread, came back up to the room, and watched a little football on the telly and went to sleep. Another problem with the trip is you cannot get a real good night of sleep, I think I woke up 5 times last night, had a hard time falling back to sleep every time, but I did sleep until 6 am, yesterday it was 5 am, so I am getting close to turning the body clock round.

My team starts arriving today, should be very good to start seeing everyone.

The entire block is hotels and offices, I heard yesterday that most days the population of this city block is higher than Midland County, pretty cool.

I'll attach a picture I took of Seoul from my hotel room, I should get out and look around a bit more today and tomorrow. I also need to do some shopping for souvenirs for my children and wife.

I am going to get up and around now, get a work out, clean up and have breakfast. You know I love hearing from you so keep the threats coming.
