Adobe!



Eating Ginko Nuts

 Many people in America think that Koreans live in little Adobe houses in the woods.  Well, they
do...well, one family does. Today we literally ate chicken in an adobe house...well, outside the house.  It was a dream come true.

Cooking Dinner



Buseok Ceramic Store



So seriously...We were invited to eat lunch with a Korean teacher who works at one of Teresa's schools.  Her and her husband built their house three years ago, but not out of wood like most people and beavers...they made it out of baked earth! Adobe!  It was beautiful, very unique, very warm and cozy inside, and just plain neat.  The teacher's husband is a scientist/inventor who has worked to make their house as energy efficiant and 'green' as possible.  They use solar energy, rain water collectors, and wood-burning heaters. 

After lunch we went to a ceramic store nearby and bought our first Korean decoration to bring home! It was a fun, fun day and was great spending it with such friendly and interesting people!
