Christmas- Bonus

Merry Christmas to all. We are getting ready to end our Christmas here on the other side of the world and go to bed. Christmas is celebrated here a little differently than in the States. We had a nice worship service at 11am and then went with the people to a park. (see video below.) We walked around and had a nice time of fellowship. This evening, our family took a walk to eat at Lotteria. Lotteria is competition for McDonald's outside of the US. The food there is different than McDonald's.

How many times have you went someplace because you saw there was a bonus item. Here it seems there are bonuses everywhere. We shop at a place called Home Plus. It is much like Wal-mart. Everything it seems comes with a bonus. The pastor's wife gave us dishes for our apartment all from bonuses she received from purchases. The first night here we bought a box of cereal and it had some cotton gloves attached to the box. If you buy instant coffee, you can get plastic storage containers called "lock and lock." We went to a small little cafe that sells juk (porridge). We had eaten some the day before and liked it. So, we decided to purchase some. We ordered two bowls of rice and vegetable porridge and then decided we only wanted one bowl and to have a bowl of another type of porridge. They had already prepared the first type for us, so they gave us both bowls of the rice and vegetable porridge and then gave us two bowls of the other type as well. They only made us pay for one bowl of each and said it was a bonus.
