Awesome Weekend...
Friday: Lana and Bryce stayed over on Friday, on their way to shopping and Boseong. Even though they live near Suncheon, we don't get to see each other enough. They arrived just before I nipped off to TaeKwonDo, where I got to spar (fight) for the first time! We had a great time out at Julianna's, then lazed around Saturday morning, until we finally got ourselves out the door to be more productive than reading and chatting.
Saturday: Got together with the new book club on Saturday afternoon. We got together to discuss The Girls by Lori Lansens, which we did discuss, for at least 20 minutes. The rest of the time we stuffed our faces, drank wine and talked about everything but! It was a really excellent afternoon and I can't wait for the next book club afternoon.
Sunday: Seonam Temple is one of my favourite places to be around Suncheon. I went there for the 4th time today with my friend James, but get this: WE RODE THERE! He was on his motorbike and I was on my scooter. We're talking about at least a 50km return trip. It was really awesome - big blue sky, crisp without being freezing - but still cold even with multiple Michelin-man inducing layers. There's something to be said about the freedom of the road. I can see how people can get addicted to motorbike riding and I can just imagine how one can dream of riding across a country or continent (eh Stu?). Maybe one day I'll have a chance to do something like that.... would have to learn how to ride a real motorbike though, instead of my little 50CC scooter.
Anyway, here's the best pic ever of us and our bikes:

Your scooter looks like a pygmy! Love the riding gloves...Didn't they come in pink?

Un peu tard, mais je voterais également pour rester au même endroit: la deuxième fois, c'est toujours meilleur. Ce ne sera pas la première fois que tu quitteras un endroit après y être restée un peu.
Autre sujet: je sais ue c'est loin, mais je vais passer une bonne partie de mon été en Europe. Si jamais tu passes par là...
Est-ce que tu savais qu'Isabelle en attend un 2e?
