Suwon sunset

First I want to add a photo I just took of a washroom sign in Canada Tower. There are actually three types of washrooms in Koreans: man, woman, and medical workers. Since doctors and nurses are pretty used to seeing naked people, they save space by giving them their own big bathroom. It's very clean, but I don't think they liked having me in there.

Oh wait, that's just bad English.

On Wednesday I listened to Anarchy Adam's show on CJSR. There wasn't anything to do at work so I decided to go to Aekyung Department Store to take pictures of the sunset.

You can see my scooter in the foreground. This is at Sungkyunkwan station, about ten minutes away. I had enough time to make it.

I took this one out the window of the train.

Here's the sun shining in on Suwon station. There goes my frame.

I went out and around up to an elevated road, where I got lost last week trying to find the subway entrance. That time, the sun was just setting and I knew this would be the perfect place to take pictures.

There's the moon.

Here's up on the roadway.

Unfortunately, the sunset was obscured by a blanket of smog. You can see the dark band of pollution in this picture hovering over the landscape.

I went inside Aekyung to look around. It looks like it's also a train station.

Up in the food court, I ordered a chicken curry.

The chicken on the rice seemed more Japanese to me, but it was damn good. I think you're supposed to pour the gravy boat of curry over it. You can also see a soup I can't identify, and those little vegetable cubes that are so hot I had to put out the fire with a mouthful of curry.

Time to go home.

A lot of the subway stations don't have turnstile barriers. However, if you don't put your ticket through, an alarm goes off and those little red paddles pop out to block your path.
