Monday

Ok, so I went to Suseong Lake for the annual Duck boat race last Sunday. There are pictures in the slide show and click it to see them in full screen. I rode up to the lake with people from church. Ben was my partner, so we started to pedal, but our shoes were too big to turn it. So, we took our shoes off and were barefoot. We did a lap around the lake, fairly small lake, but fun no less. We came in third place. A good time was had by all. I met another guy from Australia and his wife and young kid, I love the Aussie accent. I went back to Ben’s flat and he cooked mashed potatoes with pork, mushrooms, cheese, butter, it was better than the potato bowl at KFC. We listened to the U.S. military radio station, which is fitting b/c Pete is stationed here, he tells us about his exercises and routines, interesting stuff. Then we played Halo and killed some aliens.

I had a pretty uneventful week at work, some classes are really quiet, others has some rowdy kids, I have one class with one student, one with two people. Saturday I went out with Ben, we had planned on getting some stuff at Costco. But, he forgot his card, so we decided to go anyway, so we got there and we ate at the food court. We had a hot dog and Bulgolgi and chicken bake. The Bulgogi is a seasoned beef, it tasted like a philly cheese steak. Then, we set off to find the video game store, but we took the wrong exit out of Deagu Station, there are tons of exits. So, we walked through the market, quite interesting, people selling all kinds of stuff. Then it was time to meet up with folks for dinner at a Japanese place to eat and then to CVG to watch Transformers. You have assigned seats at the theater, it probably holds several hundred people. And the Hollywood movies are all in Korean subtitles.
