Wow, you know you've been extremely busy when the 1st chance you have to look and upload your pictures happens almost a month after they were taken.
Anywho, for my Term Break, I went down to Daejeon, a city about 50 minutes south of Cheonan.
I like Daejeon.
Not so much because it is bigger than Cheonan, but mostly because it is spacious and has more trees and grass than Cheonan. You actually have elbow-room in Daejeon! I LOVE it!
As soon as I walked out of the train station, this was what I saw.
Ah, the entrance to the subway system . . . extremely convenient.
Flags! Hi Heidi and Fiammetta!
For my Cuban-half . . .
. . . and for my Venezuelan-half.
For all the awesome South Africans I've met.
Ja, genau. Ihr seid immer noch in mein Herz.
The row of flags to the train station.
Helder! Michelle! Jennifer! Giselle!
Ooooo . . . funky.
Down to the subway. 
WHOA! This is definitely not the subway in Seoul! This is so EMPTY!
I like it.
Yeap, the train is smaller and narrower. That's cool. I'm sure it's perfect for Daejeon.
The metro map in Daejeon.
Really simple, right? Only 1 line.
Concrete blocks to cross the river. This was where I felt at peace the most during my entire time there.

This was just outside of my friend's parents' apartment complex. (I visited and stayed with my friend Bo, from the DMZ excursion).
Loved these horses.
Wow, is it okay to say this is a "beautiful cemetery"?
Display of a few planes.
To a monument I wasn't able to see. I didn't have much time.
Whoa.
A sea of resting souls.
Down at Dunsan, the downtown area.
I didn't care about the stores/malls, just the fountain.
We have those in Cheonan! But I prefer All That Barbeque.
From the Expo Bridge.

Expo Bridge, from on it.
Expo Park
My guide, Jonathan, and the cool view.
The famous tower at Expo Park.

As I'm heading towards the train station to go home, I pass by these 3 girls and their electronic instruments. They were playing Bond as I left.

From the National Cemetery just outside of Daejeon.
For you Americans, this place is basically Korea's Arlington Cememtery. It's HUGE. I think I only saw about 10% of the place.

It just sounds wrong. I hope you know what I mean.

This place was really cool, too bad everything was closed.

So this was my trip is a very small nutshell. I'm starting to not take as many pictures--and of not caring to take may pictures. When I'm busy taking pictures, I can't really enjoy the moment. Now, I want to try to preserve memories bu living them.
Don't get me wrong; I still love to take pictures and I think it's important, but it's not the MOST important.
I guess the next event I'll document will be Summer Bible Camp this coming weekend. We'll see how it goes!
