Paju

Paju Children's Book Festival (click to enlarge)

Yesterday, we took the kindergartens to Paju, where most Korean children's books are published. Once a year, Paju has a week long book festival. They have tours of the different book stores and put on an hour long drama for the kids. Very entertaining. See more pictures here.

Matt's replacement, Dave, arrived yesterday. He's from Arizona (AZ... or EhZed in Canada, right??) and is a pretty cool guy. He's a good addition to the foreign staff.

I've developed yet another cold. But, I'm surprisingly in good spirits. Maybe that's because of the secret ingredient in the Korean cold medication I've been taking ... stuff you would need a prescription for in Canada, you can buy for $2 at the local drugstore here. It's pretty powerful stuff, and I'm sure it's not good for me.

Completely unrelated to Korea, but the community health major in me is very interested in this new banning of junk food law in Ontario schools. Mom, keep me posted!
