I Found Fall!!!

I know that I said finding Fall colors have been difficult. Well, a student told Patrick where we could find some color in Seoul. Seoul National University is the most prestigious University in Korea, and also the cheapest, because it is government owned.

On Saturday we took a stroll down Garosu (means street of trees), and window shopped. Then we decided to walk to Rodeo Apujeong for Thai Food. It's about a 45 minute walk, but it was such a nice day out; we might as well get some outside time. However, I failed to dress appropriately, only a t-shirt & zip-up; I got a soar throat and a stuffy head. Yuck!!

Sunday we missed our bible study because I couldn't breathe or raise my (what felt like) 30lb head. I slept in and slept/watched Prison Break Season 1 (3 episodes) with my hubby. Don't worry, I wasn't too sick to have our weekly Sunday Starbucks with Dunkin Donuts. Yum. I couldn't taste anything, but I use my memory to savor every last drop. :)

By 4pm I was feeling much better and I was getting a bit of cabin fever. Patrick always has cabin fever, but I think he was pretending to be fine for my behalf. We decided to bundle up and take a walk to the University. Wow. How beautiful the color!! It picked my sicky spirits right up. We took pictures to illustrate our Sunday stroll.

First we made our way up a loooong never ending hill. This is a curve so it looks flat :)



Here is a building that looks pretty cool.



I'm pretty happy to be near a pretty tree.


Then we saw an interesting building???? Only in Korea.


I felt a little better playing hide and seek with Patrick.




Then we went home and Patrick made a delicious warm rice dish. You can limit a man's cooking tools but not his ability to still create awesome meals!! David, be prepared to do the dishes when you come. We know how much you love seafood :)
