Seoul Race Course

Monday morning, and back to school. Another good weekend. Friday night was the monthly Club Night in Seoul. Samantha, Ben, Kristin and myself hooked up with friends of Ben's who are teachers somewhere near the DMZ. John and Joe were cool people, and we had a good night. A particular high-point for myself being when we wandered into a Salsa Bar (by mistake), John and myself hit that dance floor, and worked it! I don't think the Korean salsa dancers were too impressed with our moves however.

Anyway a good night was had, and so Saturday was a quiet one. We stayed at home, only venturing out for pizza and some DVDs.

Sunday we went up to Seoul Race Course for the afternoon. Samantha, Ben, Kristin and myself had a great day in the rather hot Spring sun putting small bets on. Starting out at 500 won each-way (25p), and then gradually upping the stakes to a staggering 2000 won (a quid) by the end of the day. We all won something and lost something. Kirstin's tactic of betting on most of the horses in any single race, produced winners, but also many losers.

We rounded off the day by meeting up with Jorge back in Suwon for a couple of beers and some food. A good weekend all round.
