Hello from Korea

I am on my first visit to Korea, experiencing the cold winter.  I have taken the opportunity to travel whenever conditions are right. The temperature two days ago was at -2 degree Celcius. At night the temperature can drop to -16 degree Celcius. It is really cold and I have to wear several  layers of clothing and wrap myself up from head to toe each time I walk out.

I spent the night in Yong Pyong, a ski resort, then Mount Sorak Resort. I tried my first ski lesson. I did not know that ski shoes were so heavy and felt like the iron man walking around. I very gingerly manouvered myself on the skis and it is an interesting experience.
