Dalmagi Pagoda Dec. 10th

This posts recall events that took place in the beginning of Dec. in Busan, South Korea

For those of you reading this on Facebook 'notes'. The original post is available on my blogger site www.henrickatlarge.blogspot.com. This will enable you to see photos and other multimedia material that does not 'transfer' into 'Notes'

 So, it is the beginning of December and I have finally got an exit plan.  So, I need to wait it out for the next two weeks, and then fly home to the States for the holidays.

Most of my day involves either caffeine or being online.  I might add that these are not mutually exclusive events.  Many cafes offer wifi and Internet access.  I'm trying to keep myself stimulated intellectual.  That I am finding is quite difficult in S. Korea.  So I spend a fair amount of time performing recon in my corner of Busan. I'm always on the lookout for a good cafe, with a quick connection so I can 'kill two birds with one stone'.

It just so happens that on one of my little 'missions' I discovered a 'slew' of Cafes not three blocks away from my flat.  One was open twenty-four hours! In addition to this very advantageous solution to my Internet and caffeine addictions, there was also a kind of 'park' across the street.  This little park had an ocean view, a pagoda and some benches.  It was in actuality kind of cool.  I would often go there in the mornings to check e-mail, grab some coffee and look out on the ocean, often straining my eyes and trying to see Japan past the misty watery horizon.
