Crab-Eating!

Actually, this happened around Christmastime, but the pictures were just sitting in a folder on my computer, so I'm posting about it now. Every now and then the teachers have an outing to promote comraderie and socialization, etc. In the winter we had a special trip to the East Coast to eat crab, which was just coming into season.

The bus ride was about 2 hours long, but it was a nice bus and they gave us snacks (just like kids!). On the ride back, however, the bus turned into a loud, drunken karaoke bus with absolutely no volume control! The young, female teachers at my school aren't very adventurous, so they all huddled in the back of the bus, pretending to sleep so that they wouldn't get called up to sing. Real sleep, however, was impossible with that level of noise.

Pictures after the cut!

Our bus. It was pretty comfortable, and easily fit all the teachers from our school.

A view of the sea from the rest stop. This is the same beach the features in an earlier post where Mr. Lim, Ms. Do, and I went to the beach.

Before.



And after.

After the main crab course, there was seasoned rice served in a crab shell.

After that, there was a soup made from the left-over crab parts.

The final dish was sushi.

My friend, Dong-yun. The picture below shows Dong-yun with Su-jin, making a heart. One of my favorite pictures.

The waves crashing against the sea wall.

We made another rest stop at a site with some windmills and old war planes. I took these photos of the setting sun and they turned out kind of cool.

For my dad and uncles, I took some pictures of the planes that were on display.
