American and Russain?

On Friday night Louise and me met three of the students in my 8 a.m. class for dinner. We wanted bulgogi bar-b-q but had trouble finding a place so we ended up settling for pork. I didn't think it would be good as it looks exactly like thick strips of uncooked bacon but they were quite tasty. We threw them on the grill, cut them in smaller pieces and wrapped them in the usual leaf with onions and pepper sauce. We also ordered beef soup with these clear noodles; it had a great flavour. And of course soju which I tried for the very first time. It's not bad; tastes like watered down vodka actually.

After we went to the Cowboy Western bar. Had Margaritas, sex on the beach and one of us even got an orgasm...(the drink perverts). The students left after that but me and Louise went to O'Briens again. Finally, it was pretty busy. They've changed owners and they seem like good guys. Played darts and pool and chatted with some interesting men. Was a good time.

Saturday we went to Haeundae beach. It was Louises' first time sans typhoon so she actually got to see the ocean, walk along the beach and look for crabs and sea shells and such. Found a blue starfish! That was pretty cool. First time I've ever seen one.

At sunset a band set up camp on the beach, sat in a big circle and started banging on skin drums. Crowds gathered, the kids were playing in the ocean. It got pretty busy. There was a great energy and atmosphere. All in all, a great weekend.
