Subway and Bus

So I decided I didn't want to be in my apartment any longer and went to go explore.  I got on the subway and picked a stop and got off and walked around.  I got off at Deakso and there really wan't much there.  I saw somewhere that is said there was a temple there but I didn't find one.  As I was walking down the street a bus went by, hit a puddle and I got splashed.  Luckily the water was clean so I wans't covered in mud.  Her are a couple pics I took there though.
People sell their crop food on the street side!
Really cute kid I saw riding his bike around.
I also was able to explore a park right by my house and it has a really nice walking pathway where you can work out along with exercise machines and signs with some English help on them.
One main area.
An eliptical machine!!
A really huge spider I saw.  Probably 3 inches long!!
A pretty view from the park.  The park is really high up from the street so it is quiet and and has great views.
I did find a puppy store and they are soooo cute. 
No idea what this one is sucking on but he wanted it.

I am going to try to go to a new stop every weekend and maybe 2.  I will eventually go to further away places and spend the night but I need to get a little more confertable with the train system.  We have a break coming up in a little over a week and I have 6 days off.  It is kind of their version of Thanksgiving called Chuseok.  I am going to travel to different places in the Seoul area and learn the train system.
I also tried a bus today back to my apartment and I did fine but while on the bus the driver got really mad at this one kid in particular and kicked him and his three friends off the bus.  I did not understand a word of what was being said but the kid was pissed when the bus drove away.  He was yelling at the bus!
