Suwon's Funniest Home Videos

Well they aren't really all that funny.

Friday evening we met up with Dayna for some Chinese food at "Holy Chow"'s in Itaewon. Afterwards we went to the Rocky Mountain Tavern, a Canadian bar, where all the provincial flags were hanging from the rafters, hockey was on the big screen and a big Tim Hortons mug was proudly on display. And you could get Molsons for $6 a bottle (we opted for huge mugs of $3 local beer- Cass). It had been a long week, so we called it a night and headed back to the subway station. We live in opposite directions so we had to wait on opposite side of the tracks. I thought this video was kind of cute.

In Korea cars are not required to yield to police cars, ambulances, or fire trucks that have their lights/sirens on. At home it is a driver's first instict to pull over, but here it doesn't matter if someone's having a heart attack and the ambulance is responding to a 119 (Korea's 911) call, they just have to wait in line like everyone else. We were on our way to the GS Mart today and captured this all on tape.

Lastly, our officetel has squeeky pipes in the walls. It gets especially loud overnight and it's been getting worse lately. I'm a heavy sleeper so it doesn't really bother me, but it's driving Mel crazy! But now I have the squeek captured on tape and we're going to try talking to the landlord tomorrow. Are there any plumbers reading with a quick diagnosis of the problem?
