The Seoul Grand Park…..Seoul Zoo?
Yesterday Dustin and I headed out to do a pre-visit for an upcoming field trip. We jumped in a taxi and asked the guy to take us to Seoul Grand Park. We got there and waited a while for the other two teachers to join us. We went into the park and had about 10 calls between us and the other two teachers. We are trying to find each other and we went to every part of the park and still couldn’t find each other. We finally said lets just meet at the Dolphin Show. Almost to the end of the Dolphin Show, we got another call and were told that we are not in the same park. They were at the Children’s Grand Park….hahahahaha! Talk about hilarious, we walked all over trying to meet up and found out that we were about 30 minutes away from each other. Oh well, I hope that the field trip will be awesome.
After resting and shopping at Shinsegae, we ended up at Phillies for the St. Patrick’s Day celebration. It’s been a long time since I’ve attended a St. Patty’s Day celebration. There were tons of people there, but most of the people hung out downstairs. The Hip Hop comedians performed along with the EV Boys last night. I had never seen an improve hip-hop act before, but I was very impressed with the show. Those guys are clever and very brave to do those shows. The night started to get a lot livelier after drinking green beer. How festive! After the performances were over, Ellen showed up with Lauren and the party went into overdrive. We decided to have a few more at Phillies and then took our party over to Orange Tree. We ran into the same people that we see every weekend, but that’s what makes Haebangchon a special place. Cy, Kenny, and Tom was there and I played pool and had drinks and conversations with my friends and bar buddies. We closed down the bar (what’s new?) and then headed over to the late night samgyupsal restaurant. We ate, drank, and talked for about an hour or so and finally headed home. I woke up at about 2 p.m., so I guess we stayed out pretty late…hahahha!
Until next time….be good to yourself and each other!!
