it was zachary's and buddha's birthday on monday, and so we made sure to celebrate the occasion. we hiked up bureumsan with friends, had a picnic on a small peak, later made homemade pizzas for dinner, and ended with a campfire. it was such a great day.

gibby met a long-antennaed friend.

i know i always talk in the superlative, but for real: this man was selling THE coldest and THE best melon pops i've ever had. and can you believe this man hiked up the mountain with a heavy freezer packed full of popsicles, and was still charging the same price of 1,000 won like every family mart. i tell you, this country is awesome.

susan greenwood, you would have been in melon-pop-heaven.

made it to the small peak. our friend, baek (red dress) was relieved.

 

the perfect place for lunch.
