Snow?!
Of course it had to snow the day after I went skiing. It was a pretty intense looking snowstorm that left a relatively thin layer of snow on the ground the next day.

I saw a lot of Koreans scurrying around under umbrellas, but I just walked around with my hands in my pocket enjoying the snow. Of course, getting around on my scooter was not much of an option. I brought it to the gas station on foot, and twice it jacknifed (I believe that's the term) when I came and left. And it was in front of a cute girl, too!

These pictures were taken on Tuesday, the day after.

What are some of the things Koreans do when there's snow on the ground? Play video games.



Go sledding.


And I thought the tobogganing hill by Smashy's place was dangerous. At least these kids aren't on GT Snowracers.


I was in the park just before sunset, so I decided to stake out a place I knew I'd get a good view.

Suwon is renowned for its public washrooms. Maybe it's a voyeur thing...?

There's the window for the women's washroom.

Tennis, anyone?

On top of this overpass, you can see exactly where the sun sets between two buildings. I just had to wait. I spoke to a few of the kids here, and realised I am starting to understand Korean better now. We basically talked about where I'm from, so it was no great challenge.



Most of the schoolgirls wore stockings today, but they looked like they were freezing yesterday.

If those clouds weren't in the way, I would've seen the Sun turn blood red just as it touches the horizon.



On my way to the office, I stopped off at the LG gas station to show some of my pictures to the people who work there. Every time I walk by, the girl in the middle leaps out at me and hollers "Hello!"

At most companies here, including my own, guys are expected to wear uniforms, but girls are allowed to lend their own fashion sense to looking good.

There are soldiers everywhere in Korea. I haven't exactly figured out what they do, but whenever I take the subway there's always one or two somewhere. It's not too clear what they're doing.
