Mmmmm...BIBIMBAP*!!! yumyumyumyumyumyumyum!!!!! There are tons of recipes on the web for this stuff, so if you want to try it back home just google it and pick one that looks good. If you're in Korea, just go to practically any restaurant...it's super cheap (3-4,000 won, usually) and easier than making it. Basically it's just a bowl of rice (bap means rice in Korean) with assorted veggies and seaweed on top, covered by an egg. They also add hot sauce, and at some places you can get it with meat. Then, you stir it all up and moosh it together, and shovel it down your throat. Serve with a side of kimchi, of course. :-)

On our way home from Jeongju we stopped at a local Folk Village, because we're not just hashers, we're cultured hashers. The houses are maintained to be replicas of the traditional Korean way of life. Korea has quite a few Folk Villages, so this wasn't the first one I've been to. I actually enjoy being a tourist and sightseeing, but when it comes to these if you've seen one you've pretty much seen them all.

We took a quick tour of the place (it's not big at all) and then headed off for some bibimbap. Jeongju is apparently famous for their bibimbap but to me it tasted the same as the stuff we get from the ajumma down the street from our apartment.









I'm not even sure how to begin to describe the debauchery that occurs when you shove nine hashers and a dog into a rental van that seats six. The S2H3 roadtrip to Jeongju was a great success (once we found the place) and the entire weekend was a blast! I'd love to tell you guys some more about it, but, as you know, what happens at the hash stays at the hash! I will say this: I doubt that our hotel will be renting a bunch of rooms to foreigners again anytime soon!
