So, my longtime friend Jamie was in Thailand and decided to stop by for a visit. I was so happy to have him come. He arrived on Thursday. He immediately began to experience the joys of Korea when attempting to tell the driver where the college was. Fortunately, he had my number and there was a nice Korean woman in an elevator with me at the time who gave the cab driver directions. They speak even less English here than they do in Busan. We went wandering around town and figured out together where things are. We had some crazy experiences where women hid their faces from us, men turned around and walked the opposite direction and we were almost killed by a crazy taxi driver. This is what's great about being in a country that sees very few tourists and very few Koreans have traveled outside the country. We visited a few of the foreigner bars. On Saturday, my new roommate and colleague took us to a mountain with a huge temple on top. It was snowing! We were cold, but the view was great! Saturday night there was a hockey game. A group of foreigners (Mostly Canadians) have teams and play each other. It was very cold in the rink and we decided to start the St. Patty's Day celebration early. We headed downtown for a few drinks. I got to see all my old buddies from Busan and a few new friends here. Sunday we headed down to Busan to see Robyn and check out the town. We went to the beach and had fun with some fireworks. We ate galbi at a great little place by my old digs. After that we went to a soju bar and then headed back to Daegu. Jamie headed home on Tuesday. I had a great time and I was very sad to see him leave. Hopefully, he will be back for another visit in a few months!
