finally got a camera...

....but i can't upload a picture to the blog.

so anyway, we finally got a camera at Homeplus today.  there are pictures on Facebook for you to check out.

While we were looking over the cameras, no one in the electronics department had spoken to us yet, which is very uncommon in Korean stores.  Normally the salespeople hover over you as you look about the shop.  I think I've figured that its a matter of customer service, being readily available to assist the customer.  but this wasn't the case at Homeplus today.  after a few minutes a young employee walked up and began speaking very good English.  we were very glad to hear this, as we were about to make a larger purchase that we had questions about.  Hye-jin told us that she had been paged to help the white people meandering through the electronics department...we laughed.  it turns out that she had also been an english teacher, having spent a year in australia studying abroad, while also earning her TESOL certificate.

So feel free to look about the pictures on FB.  we're planning on riding the bus up to Seoul to have a look around tomorrow.  Lots more pics to come.
