End of the three day weekend…
*Picture of Palace described below*
And here I am at the PC or internet cafe where there are primarily Korean guys playing games. Apparently it’s REALLY big here. Like Mickey Mouse. There is Mickey Mouse everything. It’s almost 9 pm so totally the opposite of most of you. We had today off for Korean Thanksgiving (crap what’s it called again??!!) so first day of teaching TOMORROW. Snaaap!
*Picture of Andrea and me at the Gyeongbokgung Palace*
Yesterday Andrea and I went to see the Gyeongbokgung Palace. It was awesome! Took some really beautiful pictures. Then met up with Justine and headed to a picnic at some park… Hangang? I’ll get back to you on that one. Today I met up with the Shermenator, my Singapore Airlines flight buddy. He took me for some real Korean BBQ and finally I can say that I LOVED Korean food. It is sliced so thin… so good! Grilled steak slices! We met in Seolleung which is the most southern subway stop in Seoul (40 min north I think from me). Yes I’m mastering the subway. And it’s only a dollar! Then we hit up Starbucks (hello to my starbucks whores Lauren Kidd and Brittsky! – fine Hondo… I’ll include you.) Anyhoo… I have a ton of pictures on CDs that I made and am excited to get some online before I run up my technological tab. Too tah loo. Apt. internet on the 28th! So get SKYPE!!
