SOUTH KOREA – 2007.08.30 – DAY 03 (Cont’d)

Yes, I did a lot today. I left the party in Hongdeh with some/alot of my new friends, and we returned to Sinchon to go hit a bar called FESTIVAL. Oh yea, this was my first night with Soju, Korean Rice liquor, so things get a little out of hand.

There are a couple of blocks like this in Sinchon just covered in multiple stories of bars. You can see the sign for FESTIVAL in the distance, left, 5th story.

That’s funTiffany. (That’s how I wrote her name on the little piece of paper in back pocket that night helping me to remember the names of folks I met the next morning) Big dude’s Jorn from the Netherlands.

We had two tables side by side, that basically got in to a how-many-bottles-can-your-table-down? competition. This was my table.

And…the rival table…Gambei!

ANYONG, from Arrested Development serves us Soju/Pineapple Juice cocktail. Add two more bottles of Soju at our table, and you’re set for drunkupace-time.

Jane Noona takes charge.

Evelyn, Tim, and Ryo

We hit a point where we were pretty angry at the Soju bottles that were trying to kill us. (Not angry at Jane Noona or funTiffany though!)

Reverse angle. Jorn is the only one who understands my pain!

Check out this poor table. Sorry table.

Whew, end of a long day. Thanks Derek and all my new chingus for help with the fun walk home!
