Is it spring yet??

There is not too much new in the life of the Brankatelli's. This is mostly a post to for the sake of a post to say that we are alive and well. The weeks are just flying by! We have been here for almost 8 months and have less than 4 left. School is keeping us busy but we are enjoying that we have fallen into the pace of life here. We are desperately waiting for it to get warm. We are tired of wearing winter coats and spring keeps feeling like it is just around the corner. The trees all have buds and the dogwoods and cherry blossoms are all abloom.

We had an interesting experience a couple of nights ago when we went to a cafe and were able to experience Dr. Fish. This is where you put your feet and legs into a tank of water with tons of these little fish that come and eat off all the dead skin and bad stuff off your legs. Eileen laughed hysterically for the first couple of minutes. (It might be one of the most ticklish experiences ever). Matt did not enjoy the fish and found them too ticklish although he enjoyed having his hands and heels bitten. It is a pretty funny feeling with all their little mouths biting at your feet and legs. We were able to go with some of the of the Korean and foreign staff, and had a great time overall.

Hi. It's Gabor from Hungary (in the Central Eastern Europe). I've already seen these fishes on the Travel Channel and found it very interesting. Please tell me how or where could I buy some thousands of these Dr. fishes? There are a lot of korean people in our city, and I think they might feel them selves better if there would be a tipical korean restaurant with a ditch in the ground filled up with warm water and these fishes. Please send me contact informations to the korean restaurant that you visited, if it is possible.
