Valentine's Day.. awww


Since Valentine's day fell on Saturday, Jake and I decided to get out of the city and do a bit of skiing/snowboarding.  Prior to this weekend away I  had really thought that Korea was known for some good skiing places. Clearly I was mislead, because when we showed up to the third most popular skiing place in the country, it looked like we were standing at the foot of Crystal mountain, Boyne Highlands, or maybe even Blue Mountain in Ontario. It was pathetic. 

That being said, the people watching was far, far better than anywhere in the mid-west. It was like a fashion parade. The coolest things being the oversized, bright sweatshirts that all guys my age had, and the animal hats that half the Koreans had regardless of age or gender. 

Here are a few pics:




Although the snow wasn't the best, nor was the "mountain", we ended up having a great time. My favorite thing of the weekend was when Jake got all worked up because he insisted we race, and without too much effort... not to brag.. haha....  I beat his little British bum. When we got down to the bottom of the hill I had to hear, "you bugger, clearly you won because you have poles and you could push off!" Uh huh..... hahahaha

I think the only time i'd ever use the term "bugger" would be when mocking an American trying to sound British!

i felt that the term you were more likely to have said was not PG enough to put into the blog.
