We went to Home Plus this weekend, and while it was packed because it was the grand opening, it was pretty fun. It is a HUGE store, we didn't even make it to the top floor. We shopped for groceries and we also purchased some speakers for my computer and a straightener for me so I look a little more professional at work. Everything here seems pretty well priced. They had a lot of sales going on because of their opening, so that was nice too. We were able to stock up on a lot of produce. They had a bunch of bananas for 3,000 won (a steal here for 16 normal sized bananas) and buy one get one bundles of kiwis and eggs.
We're especially excited that this store opened up because it is pretty close to our apartment. We are able to walk there (it's about 1.5 - 2 miles away) and then depending on how much stuff we have, we can either walk back or take a taxi. This cuts down our dependence on taxis quite a bit, although we still have to go to E-Mart to get Gizmo's food, since we picked a brand that only they carry.
This Friday, our kiddies have some sort of recital going on, which includes giving a one minute speech that we have been training them for. Wish us luck, and we will let you all know how it goes. We are hoping this means we get to leave early on Friday! So far, the forecast for the weekend looks pretty gloomy. Low forties and rain don't sound like enjoyable spring weather to me. If it improves, we will probably be heading out for some hiking on a few trails that we have found.
We miss you all and wish you a wonderful week. Also, happy birthday to Carol and Paul!
I sure have missed out on a lot of posts. Keep them coming even if you don't have photos to go with them. The weather in the carribean wasn't all that great.Most days only around 70 and cloudy. We did have a couple days in the upper 70's with sun. The snow is all gone here, yeah! Dad and I look forward to planning our next vacation with you three. Love, Mommy
