Korean/American Friendship Weekend


The main shopping area in town was decked out to celebrate the annual Korean/American Friendship weekend. We visited some of the shops and ate lunch downtown. Evan was quite delighted to find this plane in front of the baby clothes store- and luckily I had 500W to turn it on... what fun!



Getting ready for lunch... one stall had a pig on a spit, if that doesn't ruin your appetite, maybe the next picture will...

Ladies cleaning purple cabbage, lettuce, green onions... and in the red basin with the hose leading to it- she is rinsing squid and hacking out their eyes with a knife. You don't see that everyday!


We went to Thailand Restaurant for lunch. Evan's satay arrived with bear-shaped rice. He declared "After Hwa-jangseel (Korean word for restroom... yes, we're potty training him in Korean so he can communicate at school... but that's another story) I'm going to eat it's nose" So he went to the bathroom- came back and ate its nose. Then proceeded to declare that he was going to eat its leg- so he did.

I think my day would also be complete if I had my food shaped like animals, especially bears.
