I've updated my facebook album. And created a hiking album.
The Pusan Giants had their season opener last weekend. Until then I had been to one baseball game in my life: the Ottawa Lynx. Needless to say this was somewhat of a different experience. For starters, it was a sold out game. Twenty thousand Koreans singing what I can only assume was the equivalent "bring him home!" made for a highly entertaining afternoon.
Another thoroughly pleasing aspect of life in Korea is the endless opportunity to eat out for usually less than $10 (drinks included). The general set up here is whatever meat you are eating is cooked on a barbecue at your table and you wrap each small piece of meat in a sesame or lettuce leaf with your choice of sauces, garlic and greens. Delicious!
As I have blogged hiking is the national past time of Koreans. So on Saturday my neighbors A and J and I joined the masses and hiked along an old fortress wall aka The Great Wall of Busan to Beomosa Temple. The hike took ~5 hours and was about 8.8 km. The views were absolutely spectacular!
