This blog entry will be a little bit frugle with words, but I shall put some photos up for you to browse. January has been pretty quiet so far- not much to report. New Year's eve was pretty uneventful, Korean's tend to celebrate Lunar New Year instead which is a three day celebration that falls in Mid-February this year. Unfortunately most of the public holidays have fallen on weekends in 2009 and they continue to do so in 2010, which means that we have hardly had any holiday time at all. At least we are only here for a year, I really struggle to understand how Korean people manage to survive on about 10 days holiday a year for a lifetime. I figure it must be a contribution to the high suicide rates. However, on the news the other night it suggested that the government may pass a new law that will enable people to take a day off of work on the Monday, should a public holiday fall on a Saturday or Sunday.
Last weekend we went to Busan and stayed overnight. We ate tasty food at a really good Indian restaurant, did some shopping and took a walk on Gwangalli beach. That's all for now- I will make sure the next update is longer! Please click on the photos to see the full version- for some reason landscape shots are cropped by this website.
