I thought this picture was appropriate. the blending of two cultures. Tai Kwan Do AND Baskin and Robbins!!!!! There is one in the town we are in that I frequent often.

So last weekend Adam and I went to a town about 30 minutes away from here. It is a little smaller than Seoul. It was called Deijon. (like the mustard...) We actually liked it better than Seoul. We walked around a lot and found a great Vietnamese restaurant for dinner saturday night!!!! We actually had a meal without rice..........

Sunday we had good intentions to go to a national park that was close by, but after wandering around for over an hour looking for the bus station, we gave up. We looked around the downtown for a while, and then decided to go to some temples close by. When we got organized for that, it started pouring rain, so that was out. We then decided to give up on the cultural experience and go to a movie. It took over an hour to find the theatre (keep in mind everything is in Korean) and when we actually found it, and actually was able to communicate with the ticket seller, we found out all the movies were sold out! SO, that plan was a bust too, however we did have a fantastic weekend.

This week has been a little better. My class is still full of duds so adam takes them in the afternoon which is great. They think it is funny when they ask to go to the bathroom to yell out DANGEROUS! PEE!!!!! Granted, it is funny as they are totally using the words wrong, but it is so ann0ying too. Oh well, I have 13 more sleeps here and then the travels begins!!!!

We are off to another town in the mountains (we hope) this weekend.
