Downtown Daegu, in the park.

Our first trip to E-mart (similar to Walmart), the sloped escalators are magnetic, so your cart doesn't roll.

Privacy curtain at the "love motel"

Hello Kitty EVERYWHERE, even at the cake store.

Happy New Year's. 13 hours ahead of all you on the east coast.

Our new friends that we rang in the new year with. Downtown Daegu at "Who's Bob", a bar full of foreigners.

My first shot of Soju, and I am sure it will not be the last.

Our first Korean meal. Korean pork BBQ, there is a table top grill where you cook the meat yourself.

The raw pork that we cooked on the grill.

Downtown Daegu, on our first night here.

First stop, McDonald's. Pretty much the same menu as home. No apple juice though.

Arrived in Korea with all my luggage.

First "Korean" meal on the flight. NOT good, but it was airplane food, so probably not a good thing to judge off. Cake was delicious though.
