Artsy Music & Dance Invite

One of my friends sent me these pictures of our attendance at a creative arts performance. This happened back in late April, but I figured it was worth posting. The principal at my school was very kind to invite five other native English teachers and myself. His son and daughter had a part in the performance and both of them performed quite well.

Best Ramen ever!

We found a ramen shop where you can get a meal and sides for about $5. The sides are pretty good if you like fried tofu, cucumber salad w/ pineapple dressing, and dried squid. Fresh ramen is a huge difference from the instant kind I was used to eating. The creamy beef broth was amazing. I won't ever look at ramen the same again!

Jumping in Haeundae

 Here's a nice candid beach shot.

After the sixth try, our jumping photo was a success!

Steady Hands in the Sand

One of the main attractions in Busan is their beaches. Many Koreans recommended visiting Haeundae Beach, which is supposed to be one of the famous beaches in Korea. Since its Memorial Weekend in Korea, I figured this would be a good time to visit this beach. I was pleasantly surprised since there happened to be a Sand Sculpture Festival going on here. All of the sculptures were awesome and incredibly detailed. I wanted to take pictures of all of them, but there is only so much that I can do with a cell phone camera. Still took some decent pictures regardless. I'll never look at a sand castle the same way again!

As you can see, these sculptures are have a great amount detail.

I think this is the Sword in the Stone, but I'm not completely sure.

One of my friend's pictures showing someone working on this sculpture earlier in the day.

A tale with a familiar theme for this sculpture.

 Who could forget the signature grin of this cat?

 I'm late, I'm late

 Off with his head!

 Follow the yellow brick road....

He came with them to fulfill his wish of courage.
