On the way to Busan....
If you are reading this now, I am on a bus on the way to Busan. Or, I am already in Busan, drinking a Starbucks coffe. Or, I am on the beach in Busan, ignoring the rain. Or, I am shopping in Busan. Well, you get the idea,
Busan is the 2nd largest city in Korea.... and where I am headed in about an hour or so. Of course, I still haven't showered or packed and I decided that the most effective use of my time would be updating my blog.
April and I were going to go to Busan last night (Friday), but got distracted and went to Julianna's (foreigner bar) instead. We ate fajitas (mmmmmm) and spent quite a bit of time taking pictures of each other with other people. Once I upload from April's camera, I will post a few, because we were really working it. Odd, I know. Anyway, just as April and I were ready to leave, Helen told us to go next door to the Norae Bong. A WHAT? Think: room with 2 couches and a karaoke machine. Very popular here. I had only gone once before, in Gwangju during orientation. So, we (Kirsten, Leslie, Naomi, Helen, April, a guy whose name is...Dave(?) and I) went over and sang our hearts out for an hour (Yes, I sang It's Raining Men). Yes, the camera was there too - will post pics next week.
Okay.... going to pack.

Alright ---- we're in Busan. Left Suncheon on luxury bus at 9:00, arrived 11:30. Rode subway for TWO HOURS to eat at an Indian restaurant (well worth it!). Are currently in a totally awesome hotel room that is bigger than my apartment, I swear ,($20 each) with 2 beds, a sauna, whirlpool, the biggest TV I've ever seen, and Internet... Are going out to shop (in the rain) and then party with the Busan-ites.
Cheers.
