Travel Log Korea from the begining and onward

I'm still debating if  I should go to a traditional Chi-sock holiday with Mr. Kim or if I will just hang around Daegu and catch up on all the work I am behind on. I have not decided yet. Either way it will be my first two day weekend in awhile as I still have to work on Sunday, but Lily will take over next week so that it is all taken care of rather expeditiously.

In the meantime I wanted to thank everyone for the bread recipes. It looks like I will need to find a dutch oven at least before I can back any stove top bread.

It has been rather cool, but I think I probably fooled you all when I wrote that it was in the 20's and 30's as Korea is on Metric temperatures and I'm not sure what that converts to in farnheight. It doesn't feel like 20 it just feels better than the low thirty's which are unbearable.

In the meantime the website that I designed for the school several months ago is finally online because I was at last given the server information to make it accessible. You can go check it out if you are curious at http://www.stpaulacademy.com it may change several times in the next few days, as I am still working some things out. I need to talk with Mr. Kim about teachers as he would like to post pictures of all the old teachers in the teachers section, and I think that would be great but we should have the new teachers too.

Daegu smells funny again. It smells funny in Daegu frequently as the city has tripled in size but the sewege system has not, as I mentioned before. So aside from having to avoid drinking the water you occasionally have to deal with the strange smell. My gas stovetop also emits a strange odor when I am boiling water for coffee, it smells off and vaguely like burning rubber which I find disturbing. Alas, for the last three weeks a Korean has been knocking on my door at seven in the morning. Apparently he is a gas inspector and he needs to check the gas hookup in my apartment. Usually by the time I manage to roll out of bed and reasonable clothing to answer the door he has departed which could create a slight international situation later on.

So I suppose that is it for now, I will let you know if I do anything interesting during Chi-sock, if you don't hear from me in seven days, avenge my death.
