Mission: Ice cream!
You have no idea how many ice creams I have had since I came to Korea... I am trying to try them all. My favourite one so far is a watermelon shaped ice cream with chocolate covered nuts (seeds). The stranges one I have had was one with a red bean filling, but It was accually pretty good.

Temple Stay
This time I accually made it to the temple.. :) With some help of three great friends!
So, what can I say about the experience? Well worth it but never again. We had a great guide/nun which made the stay much more interesting and funny.
I will explain about our Temple Stay by giving you our schuedule:
15.00 Introduction of the program and Buddhism. All of us indroduced our self.
16.30 We rang the bell
17.00 We went in to a room in which we 'sang' at the same time as we bowed. Leart more about Buddhism, the meaning of the colours, the architect, the decorations etc.
18.00 More information about Buddhism and we learnd the reason for bowing. Now we had to bow. 108 times. Yes. 108 times. From standing. Everytime we got down we were allowed to put on one bead on a string which eventually form a neckless. Gosh I am proud over that Neckless!
19.30 Good vegetarian dinner. During meals munks and nuns are not allowed to talk. This rule applied even on us. I wanted to tell the hole worl how good the food was. But could´t. That was a stange feeling.
20.30 We learnt about Meditation and we meditaded for 5 minutes. It was a practise for the next morning. I thought 5 minutes was alot. I thought 20 min would be very long. But OK. I will try to stand the pain that I get in the legs from sitting in Lotus position. Oh not 20 min? 40 min!!?! Why did I sign up for this!?
04.30 Waking up
05.00 We rang the bell - It was freezing outside!
05.30 Meditation with a Zen Master. My gosh I made it! (almost). They stopped the meditation after 38 min cause 'some' (ME) girls looked very unomfortable. Seriously. It is not normal to sit still for 40 min!
06.15 Moningwalk
07.30 Breakfast - oh really good!
08.30 Tea cermoni
10.00 Finish!
