Christmas in Korea

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Christmas Eve was very laid back this year. I had the day off however Fred had to work. After work he took a bus and a train to Suji. I had spent the day trying to book another vacation for us because we were not able to get on a later flight to Thailand. We are now leaving on Tuesday morning and are going to Tokyo. It should be a very fun, but expensive, trip over New Years!

On Christmas, we spent the morning Skyping with family at home. We made hot chocolate and opened our presents. In the afternoon we went to the grocery store (what an unreal Christmas Day experience) then relaxed at my apartment. We watched 'Home Alone' on TV before heading over my co-workers, Janice and James's, apartment for Christmas dinner. There were 7 of us, Fred and I, Janice and James, 2 other teachers from a different school and Janice's sister from Toronto, for dinner. We had cheese and crackers, veggies and dip, roasted potatoes and veggies, salmon, salad and apple pie, ice cream, caramel squares for dessert. When we left their apartment it was snowing! Not as white as it is at home, but we did have a white Christmas in Suji!
