Tonight we took it pretty easy and decided to grab some beers and play some pool. When we got to the billiards club, people were playing, but not the pool we were used to. The way they were playing involved a normal size pool with no pockets and only 4 balls. Never quite learned the rules of that game because nobody spoke english. Luckily they had one table all the way in the corner that was the pool we were used to.
On the way back we got drawn in to one of those game machines that has the claw which grabs the animal. Roger was oddly really good at this and grabbed two animals on his first two tries. Then went 0/12.
I believe tomorrow we're going shopping in a few places in Seoul. Maybe grab dinner at Outback? Sounds like a great day.
Andrew,
ReplyDeleteCan you post some pictures here? I hope you can keep us posted on what you are doing and it will be a great memory for you later!
That type of pool is called carom or French billiards which has some very interesting rules. No pockets and three balls. You must bounce the cue ball off of three cushions first then hit the other two balls to score a point. I sent the rules to you via e-mail.
ReplyDeleteA high skill game.
