Tsusak at Haba
Well its near the end of September and that means Tsusak (Thanksgiving) season for the Korean way of life. As prevalent as the piles of spam, packages of rice cakes and poorly wrapped bottles of imported liquor were signs of a traditional Korea that has been absent since we've been here. Particularly entertaining was the transformation of our students from little deviants to miniature icons of Korean pride. As you can see from the pictures their outfits where the highlight of the day as we walked around the school shooting photos of the kids, stealing cake and watching them participate in traditional games. Days like these remind us how fun it can be here teaching English in Korea.
Our Boss Don and his son who is in Jolene's class.
This kid is Dong-Yeon, gives me (David) some of the funniest lines of any in the class. He is also the one of the biggest trouble maker.

Gwangju (our home town)
Mokpo
These are pictures from our weekend trip to Mokpo. It was Louis and Lisa's birthday so we all took an hour an a half trip to the nearest beach. Although we were a bit disappointed with the beach (size of a tennis court) we did have fun sampling the local sea food. We are excited about the trip we have planned for our birthdays. Stay tuned...
