Leavin' on a jet plane!

Tuesday 15th Feb 2011.

Danielle and I have set off again on our travels/adventures - this time to South Korea for a year of God knows what!  Its the first time I have agreed to take on a contract of work without knowing exactly where I will be working, who I'll be working for, where I will be living and have a strong knowledge of my rights as an employee... so it could be a bit of craic! lol!

We flew to London with Danielle's sister, Andrea, and met up with her friend, Paul.  We had all arranged to go into London to see the girl's cousin performing in Wicked.  We were not disappointed! It was absolutely brilliant and we loved every moment of the musical.

We'd already stuffed ourselves with a nice warm Nandos prior to going to the Apollo Victoria... but we still loaded up on sweets and water for some unknown reason - Paul even indulged in some donuts!


After the show we went around to the stage door and I waltzed right in with Danielle and the others following - right past some of the new stars that appear in the cast.  We went up to Rachel's dressingroom and chatted with her for about 30mins as she removed the green body paint that seen her leaving the theatre last every night from the cast's side of production.

So, we left Andrea and Paul in England as we jumped on another plane this morning (Wednesday) and headed east.  I am currently posting this from Abu Dhabi, a nice, big airport with free Wifi!  We are waiting to board our next flight onto Incheon Airport in South Korea... which will take us another 7/8 hours of flight time with little sleep.

The next post will hopefully be from our room at Jeonju University where we are to be based for the next 10 days before being sent out to our respective schools and, fingers-crossed, some very nice accomodation for Danielle and I - our first real home (not counting the hut in Malawi!).
