It was such an amazing experience being there, and seeing all the brothers and sisters from around the world - there were over 3000 delegates total (mostly from Korea/Japan)...and they were all sooo happy to see us and to be at the convention =D Many of em also wore their traditional dress - as you'll see in my pics... I can't wait til the next one!!
