Back to the past

            On 02/17/2015 I went to sonbul (손불) with my dad, cousin, and uncle. There we visited my grandfathers and grandmothers grave (dad's side). My cousin and and uncle paid respect to the dead by giving them fruits and pouring a cup of soju. My uncle would then pour the soju onto the ground where my grandmother and grandfather was buried. 

Afterwards, we tried to find my dad's house in which he lived twenty something years ago... We asked the first person we saw (man below) and he knew my dad's father. Apparently he was a well-known doctor and was known for his very pointy and long eyebrows. The man said I looked like my grandfather and was tall and good looking like him.

Dad's old house

After we met up with my dad's old friend and ate at a restaurant. There weren't many restaurants in the area so we chose one next to the sea because it had a nice view. After we ordered the lady took one of these fishes in the video and served it to us raw. I didn't see that coming (I actually saw it coming). It wasn't too bad I guess. It was definitely different from sushi though. All I can say is, my diet has changed dramatically since I came to Korea. Instead of hamburger, pizza, and fried chicken it has been replaced by lots of healthier dishes.

If there is anything you'd like me to post about tell me :) or if you have any questions that you want answered I'd be more then happy to answer them in my next blog post!
