FALL

Well, finally I really made it and took the chance... this weekend I was at a temple in Seoul. It was really beautiful.
Anyway, I feel really old somehow. This weekend on Friday Jenny`s friend Rabbin arrived. So in the evening D., J., R., JH and I went out in Itaewon to eat. Afterwards we went to a bar and actually I danced again. It was a lot of fun. I even danced Merenge with D. Now JH also wants to learn it. Great! Can`t wait to go dance Salsa some time.
Well, we didn`t stay long. So the next day, saturday we got up at around ten, had a good breakfast, which bread, bought at the Hyatt (tastes like real German bread) and then we left for the temple. Since my first time in Korea, five years ago, I haven`t visited any temples. The parks and the temples were beautiful, especially due to the coloring of the leaves. I wish I could show you all of my pictures. Unfortunately I reached my capacity at my homepage for pictures. But there you can watch some more of them.
Oh, and of course I have to show you my new, cheap coat. Nice, right?
OK, back to the reason why I feel old. After walking around for about three hours, we went a restaurant, ate Kalbi and went home afterwards. So I was home around 9 or earlier. Well, we just stayed at home and went to bed at 12. I think I was soo tired, because I am just not used to walking so much. It`s horrible. I am sitting the whole day at work. I don`t do any sports. That`s really not healthy. I should go to a parc every weekend. Well, but I guess that`s just not possible. At least I have a big room now, so maybe I should dance. But when you haven`t done that for so long, it`s difficult to start again. I will try.
By the way, here a picture of my new room.
I bought the blanket, because it`s really getting cold now. I love it. It`s soo soft and makes the room cosier.
OK, back to the weekend. On Sunday, believe it or not, I got up at nine, which means just one hour after I get up during the week. Isn`t that crazy? So again, we ate breakfast and then hurried to go to Incheon, because JH`s parents would be coming to bring him some stuff to his apartment. We went out with them in Incheon and then got on a ferry to go on the island on which the airport is... well, actually there is also a bridge going to that island, but of course it`s more fun to go by boat. The famous thing about going by boat are the birds. You have to throw chips out into the air and they catch it. It was good. On the island we took a bus and drove for 40 min. By that time I wasn`t even really sure, what or where we were going to go. We went to a small beach, the only real beach with sand, in the close vicinity to Seoul. The cool thing about the beach were the quads. For swimming it was way too cold, so we just got a quad, each of us and raced over the beach. It was soo much fun. There was even some kind of a small half pipe and I raced over it and jumped. Great!
After another hour of fresh air, we went to a close restaurant, which specialized in shells. There we got a big, big pot full of shells and had to grill them ourselfs. It was different. I have never eaten anything similar, but it was really good. I enjoyed it. I was so much, we didn`t even make it to eat them all.
Another nice day. I can say, I had a nice and healthy weekend. So maybe I can stand the week a little bit better...
