Saturday Biking, Paparazzi, and Red Trees

Today was pretty sunny, so Lisa, Tiffany, and I decided to do something worthwhile with our weekend and ride bicycles by the Nam River. We rented our bikes at the cycling center and headed off. We rode for over an hour, and the riverside was a truly gorgeous sight because of the bright fall colors.

As we rode under a bridge, we saw hundreds of lanterns from the festival stored under it. They look so sad and faded in the daylight!

We took a break to sit on a bench and eat apples, and while we sat, an old man walked up and started taking pictures of us.

Being stared at in Korea for being caucasian is not something new to any of us, but this guy took it to the next level and spent about 10 minutes switching angles and photographing us. I snapped a couple of shots of him back. After he finally left, ANOTHER old man came up and started doing the same thing! We’re famous, y’all.
