I decided to walk around Haeundae today to think. I snapped a few pics. I´m unsure of how to use my photo editor so I couldn´t zoom in or crop the photos, so sorry! Anyway, Haeundae is the largest beach here in Korea. As you can tell from all the umbrellas that it is packed all the time!! The waves can get really high and people love to jump into them. It´s really quite fun walking around people watching. It´s funny the Koreans, love having their pics taken, regardless, if it is by a friend or a complete stranger. A few weeks ago I was riding the elevator in Lotte Department store with a woman, who had her child in a stroller. When we stopped at one floor, a couple got in and immediately started to play with the child and take pictures of him with their digicameras. The mother just looked on blankly as these two strangers played with their child and took several pics. This would not happen in Canada. I´m sure a Canadian mom would object to strangers snapping away liberally.
