What a beautiful photograph! Living in Korea so long, we had many opportunities to participate in the birthday celebrations. Seoul has a HUGE parade, but it’s the lanterns I loved the best. Thanks for sweet remembrance!

  We like to share our eclectic interests, and are so glad that you enjoy them…some people just look at us slantwise and sidle away!
