Running and Casinos

I may have judged running in Incheon too soon. It seems that it is similar to Boston in that you just need to find the right places to run. I went for a nice run the other day through some parks. There are rubber paths made from recycled tires that run through the parks, and also through many of the sidewalks around the city. The air quality still probably isn't the best, but that's what I get for living in a city.

I let slip my interest in poker to Jason and Andrew, and they told me some interesting things about Korean casinos. The most interesting thing is that Koreans themselves are not allowed to play in their own casinos! The casinos are full of Japanese, Chinese, and various other foreign travelers. The owners and employees are Korean.

Some comparisons between working at the preschool and being at a casino:
1. Very colorful
2. Constant bombardment of noise and distractions
3. My hands feel dirty again 20 minutes after I wash them
