Crazy Aussies!

I am good friends with a couple of Australians. Toni has been here for a few years. She had an opening at her school and managed to convince her best friend to come teach with her. The two of them together are lound and funny and just outrageous. They really are great fun. Unfortunately, they live down south, so we only see them maybe once a month when they come up to the Air Base are and get a hotel room and spend time hanging out, eating good food, and drinking. They are a lot of fun. So, this saturday I hung out with them for quite a while. Here is the end result.

These are some wonderful hats that they bought. It was a terribly cold day. The bunny was by far the best hat I've ever seen.

We found this crazy store that was going out of business. A clothing store. Everything in it was $1. The owner wasn't there, but he left his phone number, so we called him. He came by in 15 minutes. The store is absolutely crammed and piled with clothes of every kind. You really had to dig to find good stuff, but it was there. Sandra got a red suede jacket for $5. The owner kept singing a little song, the only words were "one dollar, one dollar, one dollar..." It was terribly repetitive. It was fun. Everyone got some great stuff. I think Victoria got 16 things. All I got were socks.

After the clothing shopping fest, we went to a bar to get out of the cold. We then went to a new German restaurant that is run by a German man and his Korean wife. It was a great time. After the restaurant it was off to the Bellagio bar where the girls enjoyed an endless supply of "dirty mothers" which is a cocktail made from kaluah, tequila, and milk. I had to leave early to get back to Anseong. Next time I'm going to get a hotel and stay with them, they're just too fun.

Here is a picture of Sandra, the birthday girl. She's been in Korea for about one month. Look how great my beard is coming in. This is after one month of growth.Here is Jude posing with Toni at the German restaurant.
