Day 7 - Random Adventures

With yesterday being such a long day, I decided to enjoy my time in bed and did not get my day started until lunch time.  Some of my friends and I headed back out to Dongmyo to grab some lunch and to go through the huge street markets in the district.  For lunch, we stopped at a small little noodle shop right off the main road for my first cold noodle meal.

After lunch, we headed out to the street markets.  One of the guys on the floor was looking for speakers for the floor while the rest of us just looked around.  He did end up finding the speaker system he wanted and was able to get it all for 30,000 won ($27).  

Somehow during our walking around we ended up inside of a mall and down to the basement.  We went through some doors trying to find our way out, and we ended up inside an E-mart which is like Korean Costco or Sam's Club.  So, we decided to explore this place which was huge and in our exploring I found that they sold individually wrapped sushi pieces for the equivalent of 50 cents.

After shopping, we headed back to the apartment to relax for a little.  Johaness and I wanted to go to a professional basketball game while everyone wanted to go to a birthday party for a girl they met the day before.  So we went our separate ways.  The basketball team was the Seoul SK Knights.  

I was fun but a weird atmosphere because I felt like the focus was more on the "show" than the basketball itself.  I swear more time was spent entertaining the crowd that actual basketball was played.  After the game, Johaness and I decided to go see on of the more famous bridges in Seoul on our way back because it was on the way, the Seongsu Bridge.  

After seeing the bridge, we decided to stop by a food cart on our way back to the subway for dinner.  These were probably the best dumpling I have ever had in my entire life.  They were very simple and filled with meat, rice, and some vegetables.  

Then we headed home and called it a night.
