This morning Troy, David, Lauren and I went to the hospital to get an immigration health check for David and I. While I won't recount the numerous details of this trip, I will leave you with this interesting fact: it is fairly easy to offend someone when you are asking if they have ever been pregnant and you don't speak their language fluently.
Anyway, after getting blood taken, peeing into a paper cup (I won't be able to use a dixie cup again without feeling weird) and seeing if I was colorblind, we went the EMart foodcourt. EMart is basically Homever, just bigger. David opted for Korean, but the rest of us went to McDonalds. If you are looking for the extensive McDonald's menu, you won't find it. You can basically get 1 of 7 items:
Big Mac
Double Cheeseburger
Bulgogi Burger
Double Bulgogi Burger
Shrimp Burger
Chicken Sandwich
Chicken Strips
I was intrigued that they had taken Bulgogi (barbecued meat) and made it into a sandwicg because it's pretty delicious. I usually get Filet O'Fish, so I opted for the Korean version, the Shrimp Burger. It was pretty much a Fish Sandwich, except a patty of chopped shrimp with special sauce (1000 island dressing). All in all it wasn't bad. They also have discounts from 11-2 so for the 3 of us, it was 10 bucks, for entire meals. Fry sizes are a lot smaller, and so are soda sizes, which isn't a big deal.
Here is what is a big deal. THEY JUST STARTED SERVING MCDONALD'S BREAKFASTS. I don't know about you, but I love an egg Mcmuffin. The only two choices right now are the hotcakes and eggs, sausage and biscuits meal. This means that I will have to wait approximately 45 years for the advent of the McGriddle, something I am deeply saddened by. Other fun facts about McDonalds in Korea, they have to put up signs saying they use Australian Beef because everyone hates American Beef right now. Also, they deliver. I haven't done this and probably never will, but it's good to know that if I have a Big Mac attack, they are a phone call away.

have you never peed in a paper cup? you silly thing. i can't imagine a shrimp patty. I don't think i want to. i had some sushi from wegmans yesterday, and there was surprise shrimp in it...i was no pleased or amused.
Actually Kristine,
It's HILARIOUS.
One time Kristine thought the decor in our hotel room in Italy was purple. It was blue. Hilarious indeed!
