For You All, From Me: Korean Folk Village

This Sunday after church Daniel and I went to the Korean Folk Village. It took us 2 trains and a decent walk to get there but we got there. It was likened to Williamsburg, VA which I have never been to. I would liken it to Roscoe Village in Ohio, where I have been. It was basically old time Korean culture. There were people dressed in the traditional clothing where you could also see some of the old housing structures and read about life and times back in the day. There wasn't much to read in English compared to the Korean so I know that we missed out on a lot of the information.

There were rides and games and shops and food but we didn't engage in any of those things. We just walked around and took in the information and sites. Daniel questioned why they liked the style of architecture that they do and why we don't see it in other places? Similar to a question I asked when we first got here that was why in different cultures we like the bodies of different cars/trucks?

Surely there are answers to our questions but I don't think that either of us is curious enough to really look into getting our questions answered at this time, maybe later.

I would like to mention that at some point we were bound to get lost/turned around and that time came today. We were on the right train, kind of, it branches off at some point BUT we couldn't understand when the conductor was announcing to get off before it branched off and so we rode it to the next stop/last stop. We got off as Daniel attempted to figure out what went wrong. Then we got back on that train to go back to our previous stop (after about a 20 minute wait). We got off only to then get on another wrong train, the express that skips stops. Thank God Daniel caught on before we missed our own stop. Then we had to wait for another 10 or so minutes for a train that we did want to be on. EXHAUSTING!

Anyway, enjoy the pictures without having to walk around and get lost. :-)
