Now that our school orientation has wrapped up, we're on our own when it comes to food. That means a trip to the market!
These photos reflect some of the diverse scenes of Korean life that can be viewed within a 5 minute radius of our home.
The market itself was a unique experience: women shelling black beans, men husking corn, vendors selling so many fried and fresh snacks including dok (pronounced something like "tduk"), all manner of fish, and some mysterious organ meats.
On the way home, we stopped at a restaurant called Matzang for an authentic dish called dosa bibimbap. It's rice served in a scalding hot iron bowl topped with a mixture of green vegetables, a spicy red sauce, seaweed, sprouts, and carrots topped with an egg (sunnyside up!). Delicious!
More soon!

Wow! What a view! It's really neat to be able to read about your adventures like this! I hope that you are always able to find time to keep it up to date. I hope that you are all adjusting well, and that you are enjoying all your new experiences. God bless you all!
