Udo Photo Dump Part II point 5

He’s not dead. He’s just resting.

See?

Now he’s upright.

Our “camp grounds.”

Family fun on the rocks.

There are some more extraneous photos, but those are the highlights. Hopefully there will be some more new adventures to come soon. From a blogging standpoint, the last few days haven’t been too eventful. I went over to Jungmun Tourist Complex a few days ago but didn’t get a chance to see too much. It’s quite a place, but it deserves a longer stay before it gets a blog post of its own.

Later this week I’ll post something about my visit to the 5-day market. That was a fun experience, although also a semi-failure as I didn’t get what I was looking for.

Tonight was the first night of the Seogwipo Writers Workshop (run by yours truly) and it was a fair success. My favorite part was finding out all but one attendee wrote blogs. We debated the relative merits of wordpress, blogspot, etc. I’ve been working on a story all week that I think I’m proud of, but I want a second opinion.

It was a co-teacher’s birthday today and the directors of the school bought her a purple cake. No photos, unfortunately. And by now the cake is subject to the laws of entropy.

There’s a barback who I have started to really dislike at one of the cafes I go to. He never smiles and tries very hard to make it clear that I am a customer, not a friend. He nags me about money in really obnoxious ways. Dude, I’m going to pay for my yogurt.

Doesn’t this kid have to go back to school or something?

I know I do. In about 13 hours. That’s life in Seogwipo.
