The makings of what will hopefully be the beginning, middle, and end of our "honeymoon" overseas teaching experience in South Korea. Thus far we've enjoyed a pleasant fall, have endured a cold winter, skipped through a short spring, and are sweating through the start of summer before heading back to the States in September 2013.

Life Above Zero
We got on the best seat on the bus today (sort of) on our way back. But the big surprise was that today the temperature was actually above freezing! So "warm" that we were able to step outside without being hit by cold as we started our shivery walk down toward the bus stop. No, today we were able to walk in the slight sunlight and enjoy the melting snow.
First we stopped to get lunch at the local Subway, then we stopped at Lotte Mart for a new shower head (ours bit the dust and the cheap one we got from Daiso just wasn't cutting it), then I had some spare change so I went and played the game that I so enjoy (those things can be tricky!) and then made a stop at the Korean Craft Museum which is a small store with Korean crafts and keepsakes. We made a few purchases to be sent home and then headed back home.
Not the most exciting day ever, but certainly a pleasant one with the above freezing temperatures. I hope winter will at least give us these slight breaks every now and then. The cold is taking its toll on our bodies and it's not my favorite thing by any means. I've started wearing two pairs of socks when we go out since my toes get so very cold.
Only 7 more weeks until March, are we there yet?

I think this now requires a photo and description of the game you like so much.
