On Monday after we got home from work we went to Three Pigs for dinner and ate too much as usual. The food is great and really cheap. After dinner we decided to go to a Noreabang and sing our hearts out for an hour or two. The time went by so fast and we were having so much fun that we decided to go to another Noreabang for round 2. On our way home from the Noreabang we ran into some friends and decided to join them for a while. Before we knew it it was 5 a.m! Time for bed!
On Tuesday we slept until after noon. That is what you do if you turn the night into day. Across from the apartment is Munsu lake where you can rent paddle boats that look like ducks and whales. Relaxing on a huge duck on the lake was the perfect way to spend what was left of the afternoon.
 |
| Ready for action, as usual. |
 |
| Luckily the Korean guy renting out the boats understood a little English, which made things a little easier. |
 |
| Quack!! |
 |
| Duck VS Whale: To race, or not to race? That is the question. |
 |
| We decided to leave the little family in peace. We almost bumped into them a few times though. |
 |
| From where we were on the lake the stadium looked ginormous, like Lindie would say. |
 |
| The Koreans did a great job of making the park as beautiful as possible. |
 |
| These people were feeding the ducks. |
The white duck isn't as innocent as he looks. After seeing a little brown duck steal some food, he chased after him like crazy, biting and slapping him all the way. Luckily the little guy made it to safety. Shame, we think he is an orphan duck. We named him Oliver.
The hour on the lake felt like an entire afternoon. Just relaxing without any worries.
On Wednesday it rained the whole day, and as like Tuesday we slept until noon again. We were on our way down the street to go get some breakfast/lunch when we ran into Tom, who decided to join us. There was one problem that we didn't think of: it was a public holiday and most of the places were closed. We weren't in the mood for McDonald's and decided to go to Benningan's, a restaurant in Samsan that served western food. The food at Benningang's is really good, but also quite pricey, but we were hungry and it was Chuseok after all.
I had the Monte Cristo, which is a huge bread, filled with ham, cheese and turkey and then deep fried and sprinkled with some icing sugar. After one of the for pieces and all the fries I was stuffed like a thanksgiving turkey. I took the rest home in a doggy bag. The cool thing about taking a doggy bag is that they give you bread, butter and jam with your left over food for free.
After taking a taxi back home again we spent the rest of the day relaxing at home.
