Today was certainly different.
It started normal enough. Grabbed the usual breakfast of toast, cornflakes and some milk. Got washed and ready to go. I could see that it was going to be a cold day. There is a load of snow on the ground. And it's very, very cold. So I grabbed my new jacket with fleece liner and headed down to the busses. After what seemed like forever we arrived at a traditional Korean folk village. AKA tourist trap. We got a guided tour for about an hour, around some old style buildings and what they were used for. Unfortunately my camera's battery has died and I have no charger adapter to charge it back up. So photos are courtesy of my iPhone. Then we got some lunch. Which wasn't too bad. I got a couple of sticks of skewered pork which was pretty tasty. And of course rice. Had some free time to wander about and view some of the old buildings and artefacts before we were treated to some more Korean dancers, and then a couple of girls going very high on a see-saw that they jumped off. Then a very old man doing some tightrope walking, and finally some kids hooning about on horses firing bows and arrows! But it was very cold sitting about. After a nice warm journey back on the bus, we made our way to the cafeteria for some dinner. This Korean diet is not agreeing with me. Where's the meat?!
Another easy evening in the room and then off to bed soon. Lectures begin tomorrow.
