DMZ Panmungak

Here. Sorry about my filming inadequacies. Still learning.

Korean Octopus

I hope you like this video taken from our octopus meal last week. I will have more pictures up and also video from the DMZ hopefully soon. But you can find some new pictures on a link here http://picasaweb.google.com/lukebauer36
I just found I could do this and so I hope you can enjoy the pictures. More to come as time allows. The Octopus was not especially delicious nor grotesque, merely ill textured.

Seoul 2008

As I said I was in Seoul with Joy and Matt for the first weekend of this break. Got a new camera for a decent price. And am now sharing the fruits of its first use. It looks like all i did was go to historic sites but the first few days were spent eating, walking and playing. We got reservations for a show called Nanta, which was awesome. A modern mix of traditional drumming, dance, and theater. (To any who might visit Seoul check it out.) We were mixed up on the show's time, so we waited it out in an arcade where we played games and sang a Cher song in a tiny karaoke booth. (Also highly recommended.) Of great pleasure early in the trip were shawarmas at a Turkish shawarma stand, also all you can eat curry at an Indian restaurant.
Still nursing a chronic injury, I have been limited in what I can do this break. I can rest and relax while finishing the last Harry Potter and begin organizing for my departure from Korea, less than two months away. It snowed the last two days, so I am debating whether to go out for a short hike or not. It could give me more pain in my hip, but how could I miss my last chance to be out in snow covered Korean mountains? Anyway I'm enjoying the time off and the snow. Though it has been dreadfully cold as of late. Hope you are all well.

Seoul

So I just got a new camera in Seoul. With it I can take videos such as this. It is vacation now and I spent the first few days in Seoul, eating shawarma, taking in a show and just walking around. This shrine was beautiful and cold. Luckily I came prepared. Hope you enjoy. More pictures to come.
