Mid winter trip to sunny Southern California from rainy and chill Seattle. I was really touched when Alaska gave me a piece of dark chocolate as an appreciation of me being a Gold member (Despite I was hiding in the back of Economy…:) )

Dosan Park/๋„์‚ฐ๊ณต์›

Korean Independence Activist, Politician, andย  Korean American Community Leader Dosan Ahn Changho Memorial Park.

If any American folks find this name familiar he or she must have passed one of the busiest interchange in Los Angeles – the interchange of I-110 & I-10 is named after him.

I have been thinking this memorial park’s location might not be a great and holy/respectful enough for this great patriot, but at the same time, maybe he will smile at this location to see how luxurious Seoul and this area has transformed..
