Twenty-six hours after heading to the airport in Busan, Korea, I am home. Its 6:30 am here in Missouri. Those that know me know that I would never get up this early by choice. In a way, Korea chose for me.
The meal they served on my Korean Air flight from Busan to Tokyo made me very sick. Sparing you the juicy details (Ha ha get it? Ewww), I had to make constant trips to the bathroom, had a fever, and chills. It left me hundled beneath my blanket most of my flight from Tokyo to Chicago.
Despite repeated dosage of medicine, it was the after effects of this Korean Air meal that got me up at this inappropriate time in the morning. By my count, this is the fourth time in my life that I've gotten food poisoning, and three of those times were caused by Korean food: 1. raw oysters/ gaebul, 2. donkkaseu, 3. the mystery fish lunch served on my Korean Air flight.
Korea, I know you're sad to see me go, and don't want me to forget you, but surely there are less painful ways to remind me.
