Everybody was kung fu fighting



 We ventured out this weekend and bought some of these guys. They sale them at the same stand as the waffles. We have been wondering what they were and our friends Brandon and Amanda (From Canada) said they were awesome. At the first bite I was in HEAVEN. They are delicious! They were warm and fresh and oh so yummy.
We stayed with the Gordan's this weekend and they had a lovely boxer named Zoey. She is a great dog and I fell in love with her. She reminded me of Lacey, the boxer my family had when I was younger.

 Monday, Nick and I didn't have Taekwondo so we went for a hike. On our way we passed an old man who asked Nick to help him pick up a LARGE rock. He gave Nick his gloves and then they rolled/lifted the rock into a cute tracker/truck. We continued walking and instead of going to the  reservoir, as planned, we walked up a path  that we found in the woods.

It wasn't long before we came across some burial grounds. For those of you who don't know, Koreans bury their dead above the ground. I didn't know this for the first 2 months we were here. I just thought they were random hills with statues or monuments. Now I see dead people everywhere we go.

We also saw this on our hike. It overlooks both sides of the mountain, but it doesn't look very sturdy. One side of the mountain overlooked a golf course and the other side overlooked the fields.
Our hike ended at the road behind our school and apartment. If you drive up it you will go to the golf course. It was really nice outside and we really enjoyed exploring.

We had our Taekwondo exam today (Tuesday, February 25,2013). We had to perform what we have learned as white belts and if we passed we would get our yellow belts. Watch the video to see us in action.


If the video doesn't work for you here is the link to it on youtube:

Nick and I are extremely excited to finally have our yellow belts. We can't wait to continue and learn more butt-kicking skills.
