Part 1 (in case you missed it)
http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=308402

This is part two of the gloriousss photo dump, of my adventures in Korea. Everything except Starcraft. I'll already blogged about SC. :3

Click the pic for higher quality ^^

Here goes ^^

Temple Stay
+ Show Spoiler +

So we had the opportunity to stay at this Buddhist temple for a night. We learned Buddhist eating, some meditation, basically the easier stuff, it was a pretty good cultural experience.
The surrounding area was really nice, I took pictures went we went for a morning walk.

[image loading]
Some... rocks?

[image loading]
The remainder of these will be uncaptioned, I don't think there's a need to describe what is clearly self-explanatory. The Korean countryside is... something else.

Oh, this is the War Museum. Apparently there was a OSL** there? I didn't know. But these are some elementary kids. In their Kill Bill jumpsuits. ^^

[image loading]
They had some REALLY neat stuff in the War museum, one of my favorite trips. They showed the different strategies and booby traps, it was just really cool. This is one of the simulation rooms. Pretty neatt...

[image loading]


Park.
+ Show Spoiler +

[image loading]
This was a really nice park. We decided to take some pictures. This is my friend Clint. He goes to NMSU. The Koreans call him President Clinton.

[image loading]
Clint & Sierra, my dear American friends striking their model poses.

[image loading]
This park was effing gorgeous. The pictures came out really nicely.
Seriously, Korea in the fall....

[image loading]
This was a house. My teacher said it was really old. Something about an old king living there or something. My memory has since faded, sorry. The reeds in the water were really cool.

[image loading]
This is the burial mound park thing. It was really nice here too.

[image loading]


More to come! Each blog will probably be limited to 25 pictures because that's the hourly limit for the upload. :O

Korea is really beautiful.. Also Clint has a super ballin jacket. I'd legitimately like to purchase a jacket like that. If only I had the figure for it to look good on me ;_;

War museum held the OSL, unless you're talking about a different place.

If it's in Yongsan, then yes it was OSL. Its also one of the more painful places for me to visit as my grandfather went through Korean War, and everytime I was there I couldn't help it but to feel sorry for my grandfather.

Also, the tradition is that if you take a small rock or pebble and stack it up without making it fall off, your wishes will come true.

My grandfather fought in the Korean War too. But he has a lighter view on it...
Oh maybe it was the OSL. My bad!

It's a reallyyyyy nice camera. I like the quality, and you don't have to pay a grand for a DSLR. The zoom really comes in handy at concerts ^^ I think it was... ~350?

Great pictures! Korea looks an awful lot like the american west coast, especially central california.

You eat everything. Everything. Wash your bowls out with water. Then drink the water. Waste not.
Oh also you can't talk while you're eating.

When I get older (14 now) I want to move to Korea because I think the culture itself is just amazing. I have watched a ton of videos on moving to Korea, and I just wanted to know your opinion on it. I assume you've lived in America for most of your life, I was wondering, if given the opportunity, how long would you live in Korea? Is everything much better than in America? And is food really as cheap as people say? (Lol)

I would love to live in Korea. Maybe an extended stay. 5-10 years. America has its perks, Korea has its perks. I like Korea because of the action in the city. I get bored easily, but Seoul is amazing. And yes, the food is realllyyyy cheap. ^^

great blog!! really enjoyed the pictures, i never knew that the korean landscape was so different..
Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable
