Barry's Return

We had a three-day weekend last week thanks to Buddha. We all had Monday off as it was a national holiday.

The weekend started off with a bang when I got a text from Barry saying he was interested in coming to Incheon. Of course, I did not hesitate to give him the go ahead.

On Friday night, we hung around Yeonsu-dong, and went to the batting cages and Radio. We pretty much just relaxed and had fun, playing darts and drinking some beer.

On Saturday morning, Barry joined Jeong Mi and I to meet Jeong Mi's parents at a hanbok shop in Guworldong. We pretty much finalized our hanbok choices. Jeong Mi's parents are buying hers and renting mine. Barry even got into the fun and tried on some hanboks.

I had pretty much given up on the idea of getting the color I want, but Jeong Mi's parents helped me sway her, so I will be wearing a great yellow and blue one.

After that, we headed over to the square where all the restaurants and bars are. We originally planned to go to the baseball game, but due to the nice weather and holiday weekend, the game was packed. We decided to skip the game and continue to hang in Guworldong and play at the arcade for awhile.

We sang in the tiny karaoke booths, drank some beers, shot some arcade basketball and fired the pellet guns.  The karaoke booths are the best. It's like a noraebang, but just big enough for about four people and it's 500 won per song. That's about 50 cents to sing anything you want.

Even though we didn't go on Saturday, we decided to take in the baseball game on Sunday. It was packed, and even though we got there almost two hours early, we still had to sit way up in the upper decks. And as is once again becoming my thing, the Wyverns lost yet again.

On Monday, we took advantage of the beautiful weather to head over to Sunrise Park in New Songdo. Jeong Mi and I went with Bryan, Kim, Geoff and Eun Hye. We set up our blankets and we each prepared some food and drinks. We had a great time playing in the fountain, kicking the soccer ball, playing hacky sack and just relaxing. I even saw one of my students and chatted with her parents a little bit.

Don't you wish every weekend was three days long? The weather was beautiful and we spent time with good friends. I can't really ask for much more.

As always, you know where to see the pics!
