Dog cafe, birthday and fiestas

Apparently there IS such a thing as a "dogs cafe" - a cafe where you can bring your dog and the owner's dogs are walking around, pooping on the floor and jumping all over the place. They're barking at ya as you walk in. You pet them as you're sipping tea. Original idea, for sure.

That's Shane, cool guy from South Africa, former Navy officer. And those are the dogs. Plenty of 'em.


Tonight we were celebrating Pam and Rachelle's birthday. Kelly and I met everyone in Hongdae at that cafe, where the birthday girls put on the hats we'd bought them. See that dog by the window? That's what it's like there. I wonder if we have those kinda places back home?


We then headed to a cool Soju place where we had a few drinks and fruit. I love that about Korea: you can order fruit at basically any bar. Healthy eh.

Then we headed for a really creepy walk in dark alleys, up to a Salsa club that was so crowded, we couldn't even get in. There was 10 of us so we didn't want to insist ;)

The girls stopped for sundubu on the street. I love that about Korea too. Even at one in the morning, the old lady is there, selling you typically Korean food from a tired "boui-boui". Given, we were at the heart of Seoul's nightlife. Here's beautiful Jin, having some.

At the back you can see Young, Jeesoo (my school VP)'s sister and the nicest Korean girl you'll ever met! Kevin popped the question about a month ago and they're getting married in the US really soon!!

Afterwards we headed back to the Barbanana, a bar we thought would be more entertaining. Nonetheless, we ended up having drinks, fun and sharing great memories. Pam (left, Californian girl totally awesome whose full name is Pam Cash... totally artistic!!, Ben, and Catherine) just bought a Polaroid and it is the coolest thing ever!


There, you have it. A Saturday night in Seoul. No Tinpan. Still a lot of fun.
