Layover in Korea

     Dyson and I were headed oversees for the second time in a year. We were heading to China to celebrate the one year anniversary of our Blue Hawaii Surf shop in Beijing, check on our newly opened shops in Sanya, and roll around China with our friends who live there. First stop was Incheon in Seoul, Korea for a quick meal and a place to rest our heads overnight before heading to Guangzhou, China.

Dys dreading the long flight from Honolulu to Korea! It's only 9 hours...peanuts right?
