Busan Revisited

A few weekends ago, the residents of Yeonsu were informed by the city that we were going to have our water shut off for 48 hours due to construction. Instead of purchasing a couple gallons of water for bathing and such, me and a couple friends decided to take another trip down to Busan. Of the four of us that made the pact to head south, only Sammy and I did not suffer from alcohol poisoning that saturday morning, and made it to Busan that afternoon.

Haeundae Beach







I have no idea who this guy was, but he looked important enough for me to take a pic.






$10 bought us tickets to the Busan aquarium. I was pretty skeptical about the quality of wildlife we would see, having been to the Monterey Bay Aquarium in California, but this place did not disappoint.

Jackass Penguins. I think the real jackass here is myself. I still can't figure out how to take pictures in the dark without them coming out blurry.



Upside down jellyfish.
I watched these little kids play this damn thing for 10 minutes. Every time they touched the ball it would shoot off in a different direction.

Cuttlefish. I've eaten quite a bit of these guys in Korea. They are usually dried and cut into strips. They look like jerky but aren't as tough and chewy.



This Korean woman couldn't understand why we wanted the huge teeth surrounding us to be in the picture. We kept telling her to move further and further away to get us inside the mouth. I guess she figured we just liked doing this pose for fun.
