The palm trees have been wrapped up for the winter. This seems to involve placing protective bamboo matting all around the trunk of the trees, and apparently sometimes plastic sheeting too. Given that every other tree down the main road through Hadan seems to be a palm, it seems like a lot of trouble to go to just to have them the other nine months of the year.Tuesday, November 28, 2006

Hey Busan Mike,
Soon-to-be Busan-Ken here, just wanted to say that I think your blogs great, and to please keep up with the updates (especially with Korean Mother). I'm arriving on Dec.21 (Haeundae) and will be the foreigner smiling at everyone and looking very much like Tom Hanks in Big when all alone, rather than an angry Gangs of New York look.

Thanks Ken. Your blog's a really great read and I can't wait for you to start to relate your Korean experiences once you arrive.
