Fun Street

In the last post I told you we happened upon 'fun street' well, here is a glimpse of 'fun street' for you.  Now mind you these sights are not uncommon here in Korea and this is just part of why I love it here so much. 

First off, it is not unusual to find motorcycles or cars parked or driving on the sidewalk.  This is a normal everyday part of life.
Picture
I was afraid to ask what they do with these...I'm sure they are food.
Picture
Rice cakes or fruit anyone?
Picture
This was the first time I remember seeing fresh chicken since I have been here!  The woman in the picture is cutting up a chicken for her customer.  The buckets in the front are fresh chicken parts.
Picture
How about some fish?
Picture
Right next door to the fish you can find a nice pair of sweat pants for yourself.  When I saw these pants I thought they were taking about "Agent Orange", the Herbicidal Warfare program during the Vietnam War, but then I found out that back in the 80's there was a band named "Agent Orange", so I am not sure which one they are talking about here - most likely they are not sure which one they are talking about either.
Picture
You can always find 'Konglish' wherever you go...
You say tomato, I say pomato?
I think the wires hanging down are a nice effect as well.
Picture
That is haning meat you are looking at in the next picture.
Picture
Kimchi, kimchi, it is good for you and me....
Picture
Please step around the TV in the middle of the alley.
Picture
What on God's green earth?  Do they really expect me to eat that?!
Tripe - Beef tripe is usually made from only the first three chambers of a cow's stomach.  I've tried it, but cannot get past what it is. YUCK, GAG, BARF. 
Picture
How about some dried fish?  This lady was selling it out of her cart.
Picture
Do you need shoe laces? This guy was dragging this bucket of shoe laces around selling them.
Picture
Shoes are plentiful, but only if you have small feet!
Picture
I'm not sure, but I think I love him.
Picture
Oh my goodness, I almost forgot the woman selling tape. 
Picture
This guy was working at a meat store.  Read his shirt.
Picture
Now you might think I took these pictures over days or weeks, but no, this was all on one street, about 3 blocks long!

    Proud Army wife and mother to 4 wonderful children.  I love to cook, travel, work out and scrapbook life’s adventures when I find the time.  We just got orders & are heading back to the states in March 2010.  I'm bummed that our time has been cut short, but proud of Hubby for the reason why.
