My Uncle

I just talked to my uncle that lives in China....

He told me what my first day in Korea will be like (since he's lived in a thousand different countries.... he would know).

he says:

"You will spend all day on the plane and then when you land in Korea you will go through immigration and on all sides of you will be armed guards with machine guns that look like they are straight out of a Rambo movie. At this point you will think 'what the hell am I doing??' Then you will get through immigration and some guy will be there with a sign with your name on it.... and you don't know him, nor do you trust him.... you actually probably distrust him. He will then take you to a hotel or apartment or whatever and drop you off. You will then check in. The next morning you'll wake up in a whole new world..."

Haha. My uncle makes me laugh. but he's so right.

AND.... he just told me that he and his wife will probably be moving to France in early October. Which means I'll REALLY be alone on the other side of the world.

he said I can come over and help him and Loretta pack... I can pack her shoes which will take me about a week. haha.

Then he said that I can pop over to France when I want to visit.... or visit him in an unemployment line and bring him food... whichever the case may be. Better yet... he can move in and sleep on my floor while Loretta and I work. He can then sit at home and retire.

I love my uncle. He's the family member that is the most sarcastic...... and I'm so glad I have him around. He's the only family member I know that is as crazy as I am when it comes to travel and adventure.

Dear god. I'm scared.
