Mom's cooking

All my little life, I've enjoyed many kinds of food. Still, mom's cooking is always special, there tends to be a feeling of home, childhood memories, golden times... Today I came home-home for a quick visit, and enjoyed a lunch a la mom. :) Of course dad also makes good food, but this time it's mom's cooking that satisfied my hungry stomach:

Nam!

Thank you mom!

Touristing and, more food!

Yesterday, Sunday, I visited the Yoido Full Gospel church, and it was certainly an experience. In many ways! The size, the sincerity, the joy, the sermon, the atmosphere, the interpretation, the treatment of us foreigners, the bookstore, the buildings... Amazing things God can do. At the same time so much more to be done. Well, here are two pics from the church:


The main sanctuary after the 11am service...


The main entrance...

Then more food, yeah, it's like all I did was eat. ;)


A quick lunch on the Yoido -island.


Dinner at Insadong area.


Business lunch at Chinese restaurant, tasty starters were eaten by this phase so not visible..


Business dinner, Korean BBQ again. Nice! And Korean Sprite, heh I knew to order it... It looks just like soju, too... ;)

Second day...

The second day has unveiled itself, still sunny and shining, yeah! :)

I'm sitting now in the metro heading to the Yoido full gospel church, which is the biggest charismatic (?) Church in the wold. I actually don't know how to define their denomination, but that doesn't matter! We serve and worship same God, the creator of heaven and earth, and loving and kind, merciful and just. It's goooooodd...

Met up with Anja and YoungHwa yesterday, they taught me how to enjoy Korean bbq, nam! Thanks. :D We also had ice cream for desert, yam!


Korean BBQ and Korean Sprite. The latter one has less lemon taste but otherwise same liquid.


And this time real ice-cream. We three shared this one. ;)

The breakfast at hotel was delicious and abundant! This is even according to my standard, eh heh... Unfortunately I was in a hurry (late from church ;) so couldn't enjoy it with time. Tomorrow then...

Place in the sun

Yeah, it's amazing how glad and "happy" the sun can make you... I mean when I've gotten used to the dark Winter of Finland, the sunny day in Seoul is just so gorgeous! And the kind of energy and positiveness it brings, every time I smile when I remember to enjoy the longer daylight...

Oh, some food pics. Wherever I go, food is necessary. I guess you agree? ;)



Lunch: seafood noodles with Kimchi! Nam...



The desert: "ice cream" (red beans, green beans, yoghurt ice cream and ice). Didn't expect this big...

More to come. ;)
