I had a Tuesday night free, and was thinking, "hey, I really miss random adventuring around."  So I called one of my co-workers to find out how to take the bus to the center of the city we live in.  I've never riden a bus here, and I don't understand what this means: 버스에 타, but I figured, meh, how hard could it be?

"Take bus 3 from in front of the big outlet store, and get off in front of the big green building" he says. 

"I'm on it."  I had a slight snafu with taking the bus 03 instead of the bus 3 (which apparently are pretty different), so I rode around in a circle for 20 minutes, but it didn't slow me down. 

On my adventure, I came across copious amounts of neon signs, smelly fish, and wiggling creatures that are still oddities in my mind and just plain bizarre food.  Somewhere in there I stopped for Cold Stone - I couldn't resist a little familiar indulgance.  In the end I made it home, I'm pretty proud I can manage the buses around South Korea.


Come along on my first bus adventure to Anyang and the Chungang Market.
