Here we are getting ready to go to Daegu. Nice hot day calls for some afternoon beers. Now as the story goes my Uncle Bob likes pottery. He found a piece that he liked at a store less than a 100 yards away from this bar, since it was still early in the vacation we decided we would wait and buy one later. As it turns out never saw another piece like that one.

KTX which is the bullet train of Korea cuts the travel time from Dague to Seoul by at least 60% (speeds up to 300km/h) but it has some small seats. They also have a deal that really nobody knows about. There are blocks of four seats with tables, if one should buy all four of these table seats you can save up to 34% which means you get a free ticket. When we arrived at Dong-Dague Station MinHee's father was waiting for us. He was reviewing all the english he had studied for over the pass few weeks, but a soon as he met everybody, he forgot everything. Oh well there will be a next time.
Korea is a small country but what makes its even smaller is about 70% of it is covered with mountains, which creates a high population density rate. It also creates some wonderful parks and things to do. Here we are at Palgong San(팔공산) ( san means mountain). We were going to ride up to the top but we had to meet Minhee's family for a traditional chinese meal in Korea. I wish I would have had a camera for that restaurant, the food kept on coming and coming. As it does at most places.
