YangyangBill invited us to dinner last night (by the way, is the TownName thing getting old? I originally did it for a little anonymity but I don't know if it really serves any purpose). The Kwandong family showed up as did a few other coworkers and friends in the area. There was great food, good conversation and more great food.
Let's see; there were smoked oysters, Vietnamese noodles, chips and salsa, shrimp salad, and I'm sure there was more.
Another famous blogger from Gangwon called YangyangBill up to give him a message only minutes after I had said the same thing. YangyangBill had no choice but to believe us, although he had no way to confirm our identical but separate story: last night had the largest full moon of the year (link is to the top google search - I don't think it's about astronomy per se). It was a shame that last night was cloudy until around 11:00 - we did see a very bright but not noticably larger moon as we walked home.
I read on the BBC it was the largest full moon in fifteen years.
ReplyDeleteAlright, three G-bloggers agree. I think I had read it was not merely the largest of the year, but in several years, but Gangwon Notes is not a place for hyperbole!
ReplyDeleteit freaked me out when we were driving through one of the tunnels in daegwalyeong...
ReplyDeleteIt was close to being red on the horizon this evening. Scary . . .
ReplyDeleteYangyang Bill? I thought his name was The Birdman? Happy New Year Brian!
