Life's A Beach
Last weekend, our seong seng nim, Kim Se Roo, decided to take us to the beach for fun, seafood, and impromptu test-e. Having nothing else on our plates (so to speak), we took her up on the offer, and set off on a nice little trip some two hours away (probably would've been around one if she hadn't got lost on the way. "Sorry, sorry..." she kept saying). We didn't mind, because seong seng nim has an incredible taste in music. Nice, mellow tunes, from Ryan Cabrera's True to...err, MYMP from the Philippines.
Myst-erious looking: Cool.
Relight my fire: The barbeque spot on the table. A lot of Korean food places (including plenty of the high end restaurants) have these on the table. Usually it's used to cook and keep the food warm. On this occasion, it'll be used to burn little shrimps.
Shrimping ain't easy: the calm before the storm.
Shell shocked: They're still alive when we throw them on the fire. As they burn slowly, you can hear the 'pop, pop' sound, and see some of them move around. We wait for all of them to die first, watching on with sympathy, before getting stuck in. The sea snails are the most resilient; they don't die easily. Bloody crustaceans.
"Ahh, what a lovely morni...wait, what's this? It's a little hot in here. What's going on...aargh....ANEEEYOOOOOOO!!!!!" (pop) :>
Scissors sisters: at the cutting edge of technology. Or the technology of cutting edge.
All at sea: After she sold sea shell by the sea side, we went on a short drive to another part of the shore, and came here. There's a long pier leading to a red tower that doesn't actually serve any purpose. It makes for good, multilayered pictures, though. And there's a fair amount of flies there, hovering over some dead fish. Not pleasant, but if you can shut your smelling sense, the view is quite alright.
Tower of strength: If only we know what that strength is...
After that, we went back. The end.

The Sea Shells are pretty awesome!!
Some of them are pretty shy, though. They didn't want to come out of their shell :>
even when they went 'pop!' ?
Nae (yes). Especially the snails. Eating them was slow progress :>
