Day 6.064: The view from my Stairmaster

I tried a different route for my morning run. It took me along some "interesting" trails, past some possibly-seasonal outdoor restaurants and up (and later down) a lot of stairs. On the plus side it was a beautiful morning and I got to enjoy this view.

Day 6.062: In joy your fries

I enjoyed my fries (at Lotteria) at lunchtime, and the slight translation error.

Day 6.063: Invasion thwarted (at dinner time)

While we were waiting for dinner, a news report came on about the Japanese invasion of this town yesterday. As far as I can work out, the invasion was a little half-hearted and was beaten back by Koreans with antiquated weapons.

Sometimes, not understanding the language makes life more exciting!

Day 6.061: Calling home (in a whirl)

I am busy with work in my second two-week stint in Korea for the year. However, I have found time for some interesting food, a couple of runs and a few calls home.

Today, I got an update on the science fair project - creating a vortex in a soda bottle to get the water to flow quicker.

It seems to be causing a stir back home!

Day 6.060: Wouldn't have missed this!

OK so I'm a bit off my schedule. Here is one of the dishes from our sashimi extravaganza of 'today'. It was only marginally better than it looked.
