| The Gray Family in Florida, USA |
Well folks, my vacation to Florida is coming to an end. I am packed and ready to get on an airplane and head back to Seoul, Korea. I wanted to say thanks to my parents and my family for putting up with me for 2 whole weeks. Thank you so much. I also want to thank Brenda and Bob for their good humor and for taking good care of my parents. I spent a week eating, writing, and spending time with the family in sunny Florida. I think I’m going to have to come back sooner rather than later.
Now during my trip, I did my best to exercise almost everyday. I got a Kindle, so I even went for walks while reading it. Unfortunately, it was all for naught-I gained 2 pounds. So after I return to Korea, I’m going to go on a diet (I’m sure many others are resolving to do this as well). I might even join a fitness class or something.
Before we do that, here’s some my found foodie memories in the USA.
