a good weekend

What a nice weekend in Daegu.

Saturday I woke up early. Like 800 early. I had planned to go to Haeinsa to see the tripitaka Koreana which is actually open to the public for the first time in 100 years. However Friday afternoon it started raining and it was still going on Saturday morning (I haven't had a stretch of rain like that since I left Vancouver!). So I opted to have a lazy morning. I loaded up a few new ringtones to my smartphone so now every time I get a message Roadhouse Blues starts up :)

In teh evening I opted for a trip to Mark's and then to Keimyung Makkeoli. I then headed back to Sangin and met my oworker Kris and our soon to be new coworker Mike for a beer. Mike seems like a really good guy. Wants to travel a bit and not too much of a boozer. He's been to Korea before but up in Ilsan (read Seoul) so Gyeongsan is new for him. Hope it works out.

Sunday I woke up and did my big Homeplus shop. I'm now loaded up for the rest of October at any rate.  It was a nice afternoon. With all the cash I sent home I think my next few weekends will be like this one, which is okay with me :)
