Thanksgiving Day!

In Korea, they don’t really celebrate the Thanksgiving Day in November like we do in America. But wait! Don’t feel bad for us! Koreans have their own thanksgiving celebration of similar holiday caliber, which they celebrate at a different time of year. Remember Chuseok in October? Yeah, that’s the one! We celebrated then.

Even so, we didn’t just do nothing.

Before and during Thursday Night Bible study, we busted out some delicious food for those who came. Here’s a picture of some of it. Cobb brought an amazing 7-layer dip which was simply delectable! Jake, that is something we’ve gotta try to make sometime soon! It’s like, super bean dip for tortilla chips! And then, an interesting mix—the combination of cheesecake and pumpkin pie to make pumpkin cheesecake! It was good.

 

That was just part 1.

After Bible study, some of us went to an art museum, or some sort of concert hall in the city to watch and listen to an orchestra play in concert! A friend of ours was able to procure for us free tickets. Alright! Quite wonderful, to hear all those stringed instruments working together, under the sway and authority of the conductor’s baton, making a melody which stirs your mind!

I wasn’t allowed to take a picture of the orchestra playing, but here’s everybody outside in the lobby.

After that, we ate at a cool burger place called Kraze Burger.

They were pretty good burgers—really good, in fact!

So, It was a nice to do something on Thanksgiving. Was it able to replace all my family back home? Of course not!
