Peanut Butter Adventures!

This weekend was jam-packed with fun!  On Friday evening we went bowling with our Daejeon friends to celebrate Elisia's birthday.  It was a bowl of fun!  hahaha.... oh geez.  We went 10-pin bowling at an underground bowling alley.  Brian even got a turkey!  A delicious, triple-X turkey... followed by a spare.


On Saturday we took a bus to Sintanjin, a north-east area of Daejeon, to see the cherry blossoms at the tobacco & ginseng factory.  We went with our Maine buddies Dani and Matt.

That night we stocked up on tupperware from the 1,100 Won (about $1) store in old downtown.  It was wild night.  I organized my baking ingredients.

On Sunday Brian and I went to a jimjilbang.  It's a type of spa where you strip naked and go into different temperature pools.  (This is one of the times when I am happy that I am mistaken for a Korean because I's feel really uncomfortable if people stared at my naked foreign body).  I stayed in the 40 deg C one for a while, but there was a 22 C, 45 C, and 35 C one as well.  There are also really hot steam rooms (54 C and 72 C).  Once I was done with the spa I took a shower and put on the yellow pajamas provided to me.  

I met Brian downstairs where we had a nice lunch.  Then we got our dead foot skin eaten by fish.  It was a crazy, cool experience.  I'd definitely do it again ;)  Check out a video of it here.  Unfortunately, my camera died right after Brian took this footage, so there's no record of him doing it with me :(  boo

Afterwards we went to see Green Zone at the theatre.  Fortunately, all American movies here are subtitled in Korean and not dubbed.  The bad part was, similarly when our friends Arienne and Tristan went to see Avatar, we couldn't read the subtitles when the characters spoke another language.  But we got the gist.

Overall it was a great, eventful weekend!
