Buddha's Birthday

Today--Friday, May 17th--is a national holiday as it is Buddha's birthday.  South Korea, I believe, these days is more than 50% Christian, but the tradition continues.

So no school, which my students were very happy about when I asked them what they were going to do today.  The #1 answer was "sleep", followed by "play".

I was worried that the Friday outdoor market wouldn't be held, but it was running as usual, so I bought my weekly supply of tofu--yeah!
