Not pleasant weather, at all...

The weather forecast keeps calling for temperatures in the mid to high 20sC each day but somehow it doesn't feel like we're getting them. The temperature at night is now in the teens, sometimes the low teens, and with the dampness and the wind it is chilling and unpleasant. Add to that the fact that buildings here are not heated and it means that the tropical paradise scenario is neither alive nor well here. I'm going to have to get an electric heater and some warmer clothes.

At this point, less than two months remain in the first half of the school year. There are few holidays - we'll get the day off on December 25 and that's it from September 1 to January 18. So, we're beginning to get tired now.

I bought my ticket for Seoul last night and intend to spend a week there in January. Now, Seoul in January is not exactly Paradise and in other years I'd have regarded such a decision as totally lunatic but there are many people in Korea that I'd like to visit. After 11 years there, I have people there who are near and dear to me.

This video is the Feng Shia Night Market in Taichung... a very pleasant place to go!
