Weekend fun

This weekend was full of fun!  Friday night - I think? we went out to dinner with one of Andy's work friends and his wife and son.  It was nice to meet someone else from my neck of the woods and the food--mainly duck-- was yummy!  We cooked it all in front of us.  If you look closely you'll notice that the mickey mouse chicken nuggets cooking too.  We knew Jack and Joey wouldn't touch the food there so we came prepared.  They wouldn't eat them until we cooked them like we were cooking our food haha. Kids!






Saturday we went to the Spring Festival.  It's an annual Hyundai event filled with races, food, fun, ect. You are split into teams depending on shirt color --I'm guessing the shirt colors are various shipyards?   We had a great time enjoying the festivities :)





That was the best photo I could get out of Joey, the sun was a bit bright for him.  While we were at the festival we met some of the missionaries in the Ulsan area.  There were 2 Americans, one from California and the other from Utah.

To celebrate Mother's Day we all went out to see "Iron Man 3" at our local cinema.
  It's a small, only 2 theaters with assigned seats.  It costs about 7,000KRW per ticket (about $7) and the large drinks are 2,000KRW ($2).  What's really neat about the drinks is that they have a place for 2 straws, great for sharing!

They also offer both salty and sweet popcorn. YUM!  Jackson really liked the movie, it was so much fun to watch his reaction to the differrent parts in the movie.  We had to cover his eyes a few times haha.  Joey, who actually likes Iron Man more than Jack, wanted to go home about half way through.

One of the cool things about Korea is that almost everyone delivers in here.  McDonalds delivers 24/7.  As long as you order at least 7,000KRW they will bring it right to your door. (Even if it does take an 1 1/2 hours on a Saturday afternoon haha).  Anyone who knows me well knows that if I'm eating McDonalds, I need my BBQ sauce.  Needless to say they didn't have it here, it was a tad disappointing.    Imagine my surprise when I saw it on the online menu!! WOOOHOO!
