Kids' works...

So in my elementary classes we have fun little projects that we do. The kids seem to really enjoy it and it is nice to be able to take a minor break and get myself ready for the next class and scoring the projects. One part of the project has to do with them making a poster. At first the kids didn't quite get it so I asked them if they knew about protesting. After giving them that example, the mad poster making got underway and the end results were pretty awesome...
So the topic was "Zoos: Haven or Prison?" I split the kids into two groups, girls and boys. It was good ol'fashioned battle of the sexes.
First we have the ladies for why zoos are good...
Next we have the boys and a mixed boy-girl group for why zoos are bad...
Which team would you vote for?

Smokey Saloon

So lately I have been enjoying myself by eating my way around Seoul. So the next few posts will probably be about food and other food related events, lol. So today's post is about the amazing Smokey Saloon. The one I normally go to is located on Posco-sagori down the street from COEX/Hyundai Dept. Store. They also have stores located in Itaewon behind Hamilton Hotel and in Apkujeong.I have been to this place a few times and always enjoyed. As you can see from this lovely candid photo taken by Heather.

The burgers are UH-MAZING!!! Joy I really will have to take you here if you haven't been. I have yet to manage to get a picture before I have eaten some of the burger because i am always too hungry. In addition to the great burgers they have these sloppy fries(chili, cheese, onions....yumminess). Truly a great eatery and the prices aren't too bad for the food that you get. Waaaaay better than McDonald's quality. Be sure to try it!
