This was the state my bag was in by the time it got to Busan. I guess it goes to show that you get what you paid for and I paid exactly $20 for this bag. At least I didn't lose anything out of it.
Our apartment as seen from standing in the front entrance...
... and now standing in the kitchen...
... and the kitchen itself. The apartment isn't huge but it's a good size for the two of us and it's starting to feel like home.
This is me eating a giant bowl of kimchi jiggae at the bar down the street from our house. We're pretty sure that the lady running the bar assumed we couldn't handle the spiciness and watered it down for us because she warned us that it was spicy and then it was totally not spicy at all.
This is Gudeok stadium which is right near our house. The weekend before last it was all full of people getting ready for the Buddha's birthday parade. But we thought that it was a festival and that there would be a show so we went in and sat down. It took us about an hour or so to realize that we were watching the dress rehearsals/organizations, at which point we gave up and went to the beach.
The lighthouse and breaker near Songdo Beach. It only takes about 15 minutes on the city bus to get to this beach so we'll be spending plenty of time there once the weather decides to warm up.
Patrick with the beach in the background. I was having some camera issues this day so I didn't get a really good shot of the beach itself. But it's pretty nice.
Now me in front of the beach. Notice the fake whale in the background. There's also a big ring with fake dolphins jumping through it.
These people seemed to be doing some kind of ritual. They kept tossing buckets of worms and praying. We weren't really sure what was going on but it looked pretty cool.
Starfish
You can't really tell in this picture but these are little tiny clams, they were each only about 1-1.5 cm wide and they were all over the rocks we were walking on.
Great pictures, Janet and I enjoyed them
