Weekend Adventures???



The barbecue. You cook over charcoals at your table. Mmmmm.
So during the week we work, which means Saturdays and Sundays are the ideal time to be tourists in our new city.  On January 4 it was my birthday so we relaxed for the day and headed out for Korean BBQ.  It was delicious.
The kitten Paul got me for my birthday!!! Just kidding it
was just hanging out at the restaurant
Squid on the street!
Paul appreciating the random adventure.
On January 5 we decided to pick a train station and take the metro to that station and explore a new neighbourhood. This turned into an interesting adventure as we picked a stop called Daejeo, which is where 2 train lines intersect, so we assumed it would be a bustling neighbourhood.  Along the way we began to realize we were leaving the bustling part of Busan and most of its neighbourhoods.  We ended up in an industrial area near a very large Korea Post facility and the Probation Office.

We have left the busy city.

Not quite the wheat and canola field of home, but I guess onions are close enough.
Guard dogs: Korean Sized 
FREE TV's!!!
While this adventure did not turn out how we anticipated it, the people we live with were interested to see how our adventure went. Needless to say we can now recommend to new teachers that Daejeo is not a worthwhile place to visit, unless you like stock yards and lots full of recycling.

Hope all is well with you,
Kendra
