Concert

I spent most of the day on the computer doing e-mail and self-help work. Chris left at 10:30 to go to a graduation ceremony for someone I don't know. He was still gone when I got dressed to go to a concert. I was planning to walk to the DHL where I would meet Nancy and Tina to take a taxi to Seoul Art Center. But it was raining, and Nancy called to see if I wanted a ride. God bless her. So we all met at the DHL, but there was a long line of people waiting for taxis and no taxis in sight. So Leslie, our 4th member, offered to drive. God bless her too because traffic was tight and heavy. But she got us there. It was 5:05 when we sat down, but the orchestra didn't start until 5:07. So it worked out. There were a lot of children there, and the boys in front of us were listening to their ipods. Why did they come? Anyway, the music was good. The conductor did a lot of talking (in Korean) so we were a little bored. I nodded off several times. It was over a little after 7pm. We met Pam and her husband there. They had taken the subway. So we walked with them part of the way back, then stopped to eat at a restaurant, while they continued on. We were trying to ask our waitress about the meal on the next table over, and she assumed we were ordering. But it was ok. She brought out a covered dish and put it on the gas burner in the middle of our table. She also brought us side dishes. When the main dish was boiling, we helped ourselves. It had bean sprouts and sliced hotdogs in it. Between the three of us it was only 6000 won apiece. After dinner, we caught the subway back to base. Chris met us in the car. We dropped them off and came home.
