Lotte World

Allegedly the biggest indoor theme park in Asia, or something. It was good.

Caught the Christmas Parade where we waved to the dancing white people that went by, and felt disappointed we'd not seen their jobs advertised. Rolled our eyes at the screaming Koreans as they considered the slightest dizzying experience the thrill of their lives. Hung out on Magic Island where we took in the views while we swung with the icy cold wind rushing past us on the Gyro Swing. Enjoyed the Christmas lights as we encircled the arena on the Aeronaut's Balloon Ride. Ate candyfloss. Marvelled at the Disney ripoffs with the magical castle and Lotte World logo. Etc.

Sarcasm aside, I had a really good time, but I have difficulties expressing genuine emotion sometimes. Thrill seekers probably shouldn't get too excited by the prospect of Lotte World, but fanatics of cute fantasy villages could. Luckily I wasn't feeling this cynical yesterday ^^

Went out drinking with the Korean teachers from our old school afterwards, and was irritated to get woken up to a phone call from a recruiter this morning asking if we could work part time this week. I said no.

On that note, we have a potential new job starting next week, but it's a Canadian school and the director is a bit worried that we're Brits. We shall see.

Pics to follow.
