The Hamster Sport

Up the street from our house is a store that changes its material every couple of weeks. Over a 2 day period all the contents of the store are removed and replaced with other merchandise. This week they have an assortment of graphic tees and coats. Korea has the best "fake" name brands I have ever seen. This jacket has been the best one so far. The other coat that they had was "the huge mountain", all similar to "The North Face".

Chris and I tried to negotiate a price for both jackets and a shirt...They wanted 55,000 won (equivalent to $61). This transaction did not complete.

One of the bonuses in buying the Korean clothing, Koreans are very small compared to Americans, so there is an abundant amount of LG and XLG. I have passed the store many times in the last week and it's never open. I hope to catch them open before they change the merchandise again, Id like to sport a fancy "hamster" jacket by the end of the week.

Friday, Haley's class took a field trip to Woobang Land. She had a great time but not enough time to see everything. Chris has suggested that we visit the park in the evening so we can see it with the lights.

We had a mellow weekend (much needed). Friday night was family movie night, we watched "Duma", excellent movie. On Saturday Haley went to a birthday party at the post swimming pool and Sunday she caught the shuttle bus, with her friend Yumi, back to the pool. Later we walked to the military theater and watched Shrek 3. Some of the perks about the military posts in Korea is, all movies shown at the theater are free and so is the admission to the pools.
