Bike Rides

Since the weather has been nicer, Stephanie and I have been running down by the river. It's very cool to live close enough to walk down there and go running in the morning. We noticed that the bike rental place is back open for business, so Monday morning we went for a bike ride.

Looking across to the North side of the Han River:

Looking North and West (for a reference, that means looking in the direction of China):

Getting started:

I love the fact that this guy is out taking a ride at the park. We've seen him on other mornings as well:

We had traveled East, and reached the end of the path where there was some bridge construction. The construction has barely begun and will last until 2011 (or so the sign said). The cutest part were the three older people sitting, walking around, and generally overseeing the construction of the bridge. For some reason it reminded me of the "Show Me Progress!" signs I saw in Missouri when we drove through during construction season. These three older people (and another that came along while we were there) were talking, looking around at the bridge, and even peeking through the holes in the fence to try and see what was going on. Stephanie and I enjoyed watching them.

And Stephanie and I by the bridge construction:

Sunday Stephanie and I made plans with Will to try and find the Coldstone Creamery that had eluded all of us. By the time we left church and arrived at the Coldstone we had acquired a large group. It was fun, and a little scandalous, to eat ice cream for dinner, and we all had a good time. Here's a picture of Stephanie (she's excited), YoonSun, Eddie, and myself at Coldstone:

Those are the satisfied smiles that only accompany the greedy ingestion of frozen glucose. Mmmm.

Nice little bike trail - Do you play with GoogleEarth at all? You should, and then post up your GPS coordinates so we can find you! I was looking at Seoul the other day and it was so big, just wondered what area you are in.
