Korea Korea

* we recently went to a Norebong (Karaoke room) where we entered an elevator from the street! The elevator doors opened up on to the street!
*In Korea everything talks to you... occasionally you will get a toilet that talks to you after flushing.... “Thank-you for pooping in me” and for sure the elevators talk to you whenever you enter it welcomes you ... and when you exit... maybe it says “ hope you enjoyed your ride.” I think when I return to Canada... I will leave the elevators just disgusted... “Those rude sonofabitches gave me the silent treatment!”
* there is crazy shopping in Incheon... in the underground subway stations.... just so many little stores shoved together---- my ADHD is completely satisfied/if not overwhelmed
* when taking the cab home from other cities--- they sometimes reach ridiculous speeds such as 187 km/hr!!!! I don’t mind as I want to get home fast..... (it is a set price so it is not like they are loosing money) and all the Cabs have a GPS device in them to show the highways and warn of potential hazards.... it may be a little dangerous so my new years resolution is to remember to “buckle up.”
* for snack one day at school we were served pomegranate!!!! AHHHHH ... FINE i know not strange... but because I am special ( I am afraid of clusters.... ugly looking things... such as a pomegranate... I couldn’t serve snack and hung out in the staff room till it was over... luckily the korean staff were accommodating... though I am sure they think I am mental)
