I noticed that http://www.kuksoolwon.com had a PDF document about the 2009 trip to Korea, including the 70th birthday celebration of Kuk Sa Nym. 

It's amazing that for only $2500/person you can fly half way across the world, attend 3 days of training, see the sights, eat, and get a hotel room.  I'm definitely signing up with my daughter, we're looking forward to seeing where Kuk Sool Won originated, meeting people from around the world and experience all the wonder of Korea.

I've also made my travel arrangements to make it to the Texas Tournament on November 10.  I'm not sure if I'll compete or judge yet, Sa Bub Nym Mitchell in Peoria mentioned that you have to judge at least one tournament before you can get promoted to 2nd Dahn.  Sure, I've only been a black belt since June, but it would be nice to get that judging requirement out of the way, and I can't imagine a better place to do it than the world tournaments.

Hope everyone is doing great, we'll see you in our travels!
