Bamboozled

On Sunday Jesse, Natalie, and I went to the Bamboo Park, otherwise known as the "Bamboo Forest Theme Park Juknokwon."

At first it was dark and scary and we didn't know whether to keep going or not.

But we pressed on and it was worth it.  We found some real live pandas.  One was playing soccer and he was particularly cool.  He didn't mind us posing with him.

Natalie had a moment of deep thinking with the panda...

Jesse prefered the pandabear hug...

And I gave the lil' guy a big ole high five

After meeting the pandas it was time to climb bamboo.

Jesse kissed a cow and he liked it.

A look-out point in the Bamboo Park. 

After the bamboo park we were really hungry and so we ate at the tourist restaurant outside the park's grounds.  I picked something at random off the menu and honestly I am still not sure what we ate.  One nice thing about Korean food though is that if you don't like the main dish you ordered, you can completely fill yourself up on all the side dishes, seen above.

After a little confusion about where we were supposed to get on the bus to go back to Gwanju, we made our way home.  It was a fun day!
