Alive and well.....

Well of course I'm alive and well! It's not rocket science getting through airports right? Although working out that you actually have to "enter" China to do a transfer through Shanghai Airport was a bit hairy, but managed to come through relatively unscathed.....
Just a couple of quick points before I go and watch Mr Brown instructing.....
Picked up at the airport by Mr Brown, Secretary and Director Kim - with a sign welcoming me to Korea - nice!
Mr Brown's being a wuss about the whole driving thing - I didn't freak out once on the way to the dojan, but then Secretary Kim was driving and he told us he was a driver in the military during his compulsory service - so he has specialised training....
Walking across the road or on the footpaths though? That takes skill!!!!! Well, skill to do it without getting run over.... Apparently the road rules are more like guidelines here.... Look left, look right, look left, look right, look left, look right again and then still wait for someone else to start before you cross the road!
Was treated to tea with the President of ITF Korea this afternoon also which was definately a nice way to start my trip.....
The brain is starting to lose substance at this point (have been awake since I don't know what time as the time zones have all been changing), so am going to keep it short and sign off for now.
Annyeong Haseyo!

Tell them that you were exposed to SYrian and Thai driving as an infant and are now immune.
