WOW!....it has been a fabulous weekend. The weather has been great for the adventures we have had. On Saturday we decided ( we being, Sloan, Jess and I ) to go to Kwangju for a day of shopping. It was fantastic. Hopped on the KTX at 11:10 - pulled into Kwangju at 11:35 and were ready to hit the road.
I was disappointed by one thing that day. There was a cute little bead store that Mathew and I had been to a few times....actually Mathew surprised me and took me there for my birthday, well...I am either blind or it is no longer there....and although my eyes are sometimes not the greatest I think they were working just fine that day! Oh well!
Next we hit STARBUCKS....that's right.....and I swear an Americano never tasted so good. I wish we had Starbucks in Mokpo.....mmmmmm I think I would set up a tent and never leave.
Coffee in Korea is not really all that good...and on top of it they tend to water it down...so....EKKK!
After about 45 min of drinking, talking and people watching we were on our way. We hit the Body Shop ( OMG - good face wash) then hit the grocery store...mmmm chick peas....lol
Its funny the things you get excited about....!!!
We had lunch in TGI Fridays and .....well as they brought out Sloan's and Jess's meal...ugggg...we realized they had forgot to make mine...LOL...so lets just say it wasn't the best meal ever. And 17,000 won later....lol
Last but not least we hit the best place you can imagine...Its the underground market. It is a little store underground..near the subway and the bus station that sells western food...SERIOUSLY...western food....there is cheese and oatmeal, all kids of meat, frozen vegetables, peanut butter, crackers.....mmmm I was in heaven and it was obvious to the Korean working at the cash because he said "mmm I think this is your first time in this store" LOL
All in all it was an awesome trip...but by they end...We were all just so glad to be home!
