What are your favorite ways to relax?

I love to take baths. And that’s something I haven’t been able to do regularly for awhile. I didn’t have a bathtub while living in Korea for two years. (One time when I was really sick, I put a beach towel down in the shower and laid on it while the hot water poured over me. It was the best I could do.) Bathtubs aren’t common in Asia. So I was delighted to discover that the hostel I’m staying in now has one. I’m sick now as well and the hot bath I took tonight felt so good!

The One-Minute Writer

Write about something you were scared of when you were a child.

Horses. I don’t know why, I have just always had an irrational fear of them. Particular riding them. We are going on a tour of the Mongolian countryside tomorrow and one of the activities is horseback riding. Which I am going to skip!!

  1. I love the nesting dolls. Went to EPCOT for the first time last week. I was disappointed that they didn’t have a Russia. I wanted to buy some from there. It seems I have this mentality that if I can’t go to a particular country, then it’s somehow okay to buy their stuff from an ethnic festival, the ethnic part of a major city (ie: China Town in NY), or EPCOT. I guess it’s my way of pretending that I’m “well traveled”. Have a blessed day :o )
