Trip friends
I learned on my recent travels to Korea that hanging out with a group of teachers isn't actually too bad; there are in fact a goodly number that are pretty doggone cool. I wish I had taken more photos of my Korean trip-friends, but I didn't make the same mistake twice -- on this trip I took plenty of trip-friend photos (it helps that they are a photogenic bunch).

Loretta and Jean -- both the sort of beautiful women who bring much wisdom to any situation.I snapped this photo while the three of us rode the subway in Tokyo. Kip is just about to bite Jenny's arm.
Ken, Jenny & Kip (whose face is starting to show frustration at fact that we'd been walking a long way but were still unable to find a place to eat).
Jenny, Meg & Kate having some fun posing with a fast-asleep teacher.

Here's the whole lot of us. Notice how cramped the bus is -- that was our mode of transport while touring all around Arao. We made it work, somehow.
Meg obviously enjoying our karaoke evening at the ryoken.

Jenny dresses more like a movie star than just about anybody else I know.

This is a typically "Kate" face -- mostly mischievous, with an underlying current of zen-like acceptance.
