More Photos--Now with Captions!


This is Zibby. Despite being from Idaho, she's a pretty cool cat.
 We all went to luch to celebrate her birthday. This is birthday cake #1
Birthday cakes 2, 3, & 4 will follow, throughout the course of the day



Greg and Laura. They are full of pajan, and thus delighted.

Deep withing the innter-sanctum of the nori-nag.
Needless to say, it we are approaching the wee-hours, and are all throughly shittered.
Greg has three levels of drunkness:
Level one: superfriendly Greg
Level two: Radiohead songs playing Greg (shown above)
Level three: Toothless, shirt-off Greg.

Zibby after four cakes, and God knows how many ounces of soju.


Arthur, trying to puzzle out how Tongyeong got stuck in the magic box;
Belinda, presumably phoning her boyfriend while seated on a shirtless Mr. Christopher.


This is Steve. He's probably the coolest dude in Tongyeong.
He's also from Canada (naturally).
After I got my scooter, we decided to do a circuit of the south island.
The scooter on the left is mine.

After getting my scooter, I went gung-ho on exploring.
Occasionally, I hit a dead-end. 


The Admiral Ye Sun Shin commemorating the battle of Hansando, 
 gaurding against the Japanese.
Presumably, this statue was erected after 1945, *cough* *cough*

Admiral Yi Park . This is why I love Korea.

Add a rock, make a wish. Supposedly a Buddhist thing. (This is very perplexing).



This is from the mountain in my backyard. One of the first things I did in Tongyeong was climb it.
It's still one of my favorite places.

More from the mountain...







These are some of my student's. That's a bag of melting ice on Dereck's head.
The kid the look's like he's drunk is Frank (Franky two-shoes).


This is Lilia, one of my colleagues. She's a pretty cool gal.

Hangin' on the pier.
