Happy Chuseok!

Our Chuseok Supper of Bulgogi
Over this last week was Chuseok (a mix between Korean Thanksgiving and Memorial Day).  Since school was not in session, we thought it would be a perfect time to visit our good friend, Kate...who is also teaching in Korea, and see the sites of Seoul!
Teresa, Kate, and Nannie

Suwon Fortress
It was a 4 hour trip by bus/subway/and walking from one place to another, but we finally made it and had a wonderful time!  Wednesday we did some exploring in Anyang City (a suburb of Seoul) and ate sushie and bulgogi.  Thursday we went to Suwon Fortress with a Korean friend, after our visit to Suwon we went back to our new friend's house for an authentic Korean meal of squid, curry, eggplant, and some kind of meat. 

Cuttle Fish Pizza and Oyster Soup!
Friday morning started off by eating a GIANT ASIAN PEAR!!  (Be jealous Christina and Andrew...)  After this delicous treat we went with a co-teacher from Teresa's school who took us on a tour of Seoul.  Our favorite stop was Changdeok Palace.  We also visited art galleries, ate some cuttle fish and oyster soup, and walked along Insadong shopping street.

Kate, Ji Haye, and Teresa at Changdeok
This was one of our favorite weeks since we have been in Korea and we look forward to more adventures with Kate! 
This weekend was much needed and a huge blessing to all three of us!

Home Sweet Home!

Finally! Some pictures of our apartment!  They finished building our apartment and we are all moved in....  It is pretty much amazing... It is small, but very modern and awesomely Asian.  They are still working on the surrounding buildings, so the construction is a little noisy, but not too bad.
