Jet Lag

I have to say that I am very proud of myself and my children. We all survived the 14 hour plane ride to Korea without any major problems. I never have any problems with Jackson, but I was very concerned with Marley since she is 2 1/2 and that age is terrible even when not on a plane. We started out our trip at the DFW airport USO in the international terminal. Now the international terminal USO is much smaller than the regular one, but I could not have been more impressed. We were overwhelmed with all the complimentary food and drinks they provided. The gentleman that worked there even put a Disney movie on for the kids to watch. After we loaded up on goodies, we all headed out to the plane. From the time we got on that plane to the time we left I was completely blown away at the fabulous service we received on Korean Airlines. We were offered fruit and juice every two hours, the meals were wonderful, the two alcoholic beverages that we consumed were free, and there were no screaming babies (including mine)! Once we landed we breezed through immigration and customs. The only miserable part was the fact that we landed at one end of the airport and the meeting place for the military shuttles was at the other end of the airport (i swear it was a mile walk with all our crap). Once we got to the military shuttle check in we only had to wait 30 minutes before we were all on a bus and on our way to the Dragonhill Lodge. We hit a few speed bumps at the Dragonhill, but we are working them out (we hope) today. Well we are off to explore a little bit.
