I've lost my voice, something that started out as a tickle turned into full on laryngitis. I can't teach so I'm taking the opportunity to catch up on some postings....
Here's a photo of the parking area near my apartment. It doubles as a handy place to grow cabbage, there's always room for kimchi.
It's fall and the hiking has been beautiful. Earlier this month
all the teachers at my main school cut out early and loaded onto a tour bus. We drove about 2 hours to Wolchulsan National Park.
Along the trail a park ranger required us to take a bag of soil. Every person takes a bag of soil and carries it to a check point, here you leave the soil and rangers use it to maintain the trails. We didn't realize this and carried our bags until we saw a well eroded spot to get rid of the soil.
We hiked for an hour and then loaded onto the bus to watch the sunset. The trip ended with a huge meal of fresh caught fish served raw and then singing karaoke style on the bus. I wasn't expecting the singing, I was terrible and had a limited English lyric selection (no excuse) but it was really fun. I wonder what the bus driver thought, I forgot to mention that a lot of soju and beer was drank at the dinner. The principal was really excited to pull into the school driveway singing some popular anthem of a song, (yup two full hours of singing) that's how we roll.
