Korea is Safe!

Just a quick note, since I've gotten several emails from people concerned about the tsunami in this part of the world.

The islands of Japan basically act as a barrier reef for the Korean peninsula, effectively protecting Korea from things such as the recent tsunami.  Additionally, Korea is a very mountainous country-- so with the exception of the beach areas in the south, most of Korea is similar to the Appalachians in the U.S. 

Seoul is about 200 miles north of the southern coast... it's perfectly safe here.

Sooo.... love you all-- and you don't have to worry!
