Holiday~

So Thursday Oct 3rd we got off classes for Foundation Day! One of my friends from OSU and I were paired with a Korean conversation partner together so on Thursday the three of us went to Insadong together. Insadong is a famous area in Seoul known for it's traditional crafts. It was a super cute area and had lots of different shops. We mostly spent our time at the "Alive" museum, which uses trick art.

Look! We're in a picture on a camera in a picture!

I'm drowning in a giant mug of beer!

The three of us!

Friday we still had school, but today we met up again to go see fireworks together! We went to Yeoido, which is right on the Han River. They did 4 sets of fireworks. They had teams from US, Japan, France, and Korea putting in charge of the sets. Of course Korea did the last one and that was the longest with the most fireworks! It was pretty impressive, but there were so many people! There was a steady stream of people walking right in front of us during the show, which was pretty obnoxious. Next time I see fireworks in Seoul I'm definitely arriving hours beforehand to claim a better spot. XD

Happy Foundation Day!
