Sunday afternoon, sunny but cool. A perfect temperature for walking! It's nice to stroll around while clear and crisp air blows on my face and colorful trees sway their branches on a cool breeze. Brown leaves are brittle on the ground and crunch on my feet as I step on them. Amazingly beautiful season!

As promised, we visited the local museum. Buyeo National Museum is across the street from our apartment, so near that we didn't bother to visits until today (after 2 mos). It was bad timing though, the whole place was crowded with children on a fieldtrip. I guess that's one reason why we didn't bother to stop-by, everyday the place is jam-pack with tourist buses. As we expected various relics and artifacts of Baekje culture, are kept in this museum. Stone and bronze daggers, clay pottery, and various incense burner, to name a few. Many of these are thousand years old. Taking picture is not allowed but we're able to take a snap of the famous insense burner.




us enjoying the nice weather :)

Our day ends with a korean take-out, kimbap and bibimbap with kimchi on the side. Kimbap is a korean roll, rice, egg, carrots, raddish, krab, and ham rolled in seaweeds. Bibimbap is made from cooked rice, fried egg, bits of meat (sometimes mushroom), seasoned vegetables and red pepper paste. It's so spicy but very nutritious!


Have a great week folks!
