Relaxing...

Coffee! My favorite way to relax no matter where in the world I am! This is a shot of my Latte at the Illy Cafe. I rode the bus into town on Monday by myself to read, write and spend some time alone. I had a really good time and I was able to get some good reading done! I'm just about to finish F. Scott Fitzgerald's "This Side of Paradise."

Camp ended on Friday at about 1:00 P.M. and I have had some time to explore and relax. The next camp doesn't start until Monday morning at 11:00 A.M. so we have plenty of time to do whatever we like.

Last night we went to a karaoke house as a group. It was amazing. We all paid 1,000 Won ($1) to get in and then they took our group to our own private Karaoke room. There were about 15 of us crammed in the room with a flat screen T.V. two wireless microphones, and about 6 tambourines. We all took turns singing our favorite songs for about 2 hours it was a great time! Its a pretty cool way to Karaoke!

Here is a video of our group rocking out to a Korean pop song:



Today we went to a place called Jukdo Market in the city of Pohang. It was amazing. There is no way I could ever describe the feeling, the sounds, and the smells that fill the place! Its a very large market with lots for sale. There are live fish everywhere, socks, fruit, vegetables, candy, blankets, and anything else you might need! People would be shouting and yelling and pushing and buying. I tried dried octopus, puffed rice, tofu chips, and dried squid legs!

Here is a picture of the entrance to the market:

Tomorrow morning we are going for a bike ride really early to hike up a mountain named Dragon mountain to watch the sun rise over the water. Should be cool! Hope all is well! Love, Joy & Peace!
