What about with 12kgs of baby on your front? I'm guessing it's not stroller-accessible :) I haven't seen the military museum either. As Homer once said, "Good things don't end in 'eum,' they end in 'mania'...or 'teria'" :) -Ian

No, I just went to the Haeundae-gu coastal area and then for a couple of nights had a great view of this (Gwangan Beach/ Gwangan Bridge) from our hotel room. Actually, this photo I found on Google images looks very similar to the view we had... totally unobstructed. Definitely the...

Live octopus I had to come back to this thread because I just went on a little road trip to a different city (Pusan) for 5 days, and while I was there I ate live octopus. Well, actually I can't say I really ate a meal of it, I just tried a piece. I never knew before that the tenticles keep...

It does have it's upside. More freedom. More personal responsibility and less "the gummit will take care of me". I see so many examples of things here that just wouldn't fly in Australia coz someone would get sued (eg. gym equipment in public parks, rocky/bumpy stairs with inadequate...

I have the same basic desire and get myself into regular trouble here in Korea. A few weeks ago one of the side dishes was um... well it looked like fried cockroaches, and I was just out with FIL who was paying, so to stop eating them would have been way too rude. And to my horror when I finally...

Sooooo... Last night I ate dog meat. It's such a Korean stereotype that a couple of days ago I asked my wife "Why haven't I eaten dog meat yet?!". She looked surprised as most Koreans actually don't really eat it, and said "You want to try it? I'll let my dad know". (Even she's never eaten it...
