Hello from Korea!

Hi everybody. Sorry I couldn't post up the first few days. Stuff was getting in the way.

This is my third full day in Busan, South Korea. I think that the hotel is very nice because it is in a very good spot. We have a view of the beach and down there are some sculptures, like these:






I've been spending some time at the Bexco Convention Center for the Wold Council of Churches Assembly which is why we are here.


We can watch ships come in to town from our window. Every day we've gone down to the beach to play in the sand and look at the sculptures.

I'll keep you posted!

We are home

We took a big plane to get from Athens to Toronto. And it was a long plane ride.


We stayed in Toronto because our plane was late. We got a free hotel room and food.


We took a small small plane to get home from Toronto.





We are home!

Some last pictures from Crete

Jon remains reluctant to blog but agreed a few final pictures from Crete were in order.

The inside of a church built into a hillside (which could be seen from our villa):


And the outside:


Our first stop in Iraklio:


Iraklio's fortress with the waves crashing against the breakwater:


Iraklio's old and new ports, with the latter featuring the ferry we took here a week ago:


He'll keep you posted!

My triumphant day

Today we went to the beach. And before I went to the beach my dad and I went putt putt golfing and I won.


And then after we were done putt putt golfing I went swimming and was looking for big rocks and found some fish.


Then after rest time we went and got ice-cream.


And then my mom and I played Skip-Bo and I won.


I'll keep you posted!

One of the last places I'm staying

This is the front entrance of one of the last places I'm staying [in Kastellos, Crete]. There are only going to be four more blogs.


And this is me eating breakfast at the front entrance.


And this is our back patio.


And this is the view from our back patio. And we have two pools all to ourselves.


This is me diving into one of the pools.


And this is how we get our water. This is a really big solar panel and I've seen a commercial about these solar panels. And the solar panels heat our water.


And this is me in my bed.


I'll keep you posted!

A post Jon doesn't know about

Jon's been so tired he hasn't had the energy to blog for the last couple of days. But below are a few pictures from our visit to Rethymno this morning.

The entrance to the Venetian Fortezza:


A spitting water fountain in the Old Town:


At a bakery:


Hopefully he'll keep you posted tomorrow.

Corinth and Knossos

Yesterday morning we went to see these cool ruins. It's where St. Paul went to preach and he started a church.


And then we went on this huge, fancy boat and it was a ferry.


And we had to wake up really early for the next passengers so they could clean it.


And then we went to see the labyrinth where the Minotaur used to live.


And here's me and the Minotaur in Lego:


Now we are staying at a villa up in the hills [of Crete]. And it's like our own house.

I'll keep you posted!
