Elephant Nuts Shot

I went searching for universities that offered beginner Korean classes. I've been thinking about going down here in September and taking an actual structured course to learn Korean. However I started getting side tracked as usual.


Instead of looking for classes today I was lucky enough to ride some elephants while I was in Korea. In fact, I became some what of an elephant trainer and the elephants could tell I was not to be messed with. But to initially show my dominance, I kicked the alpha elephant square in the balls to show him who was boss. After that a power struggle occurred and I had become the new pack leader. I was so well accepted as the new leader that I was able to ride on top of their baby elephant with no complaints from the protective mother. Here are the shots.

As the day wore down and before I went to the Jim Jil Bang I decided to do an "oldie but goodie" of a long exposure trick shot. 



I tried to spell Korea. I thought is was ok

----------
On my to the Jim Jil Bang I passed by this hole in the wall very small pub. I looked in and it reminded me of pubs back at home. It had this legit North American feel too it. So I decided to walk in and it was really cool. There were Indians, Japanese, old  English guys and young Americans partying it up and taking shots of tequila all night. It was by far the most diverse place I have seen so far in Seoul. In fact the bartender was a Philippino women and has been living in Korea for 8 years. Her Korean was almost fluent, it was really cool to see.
