Nice Saturday with friends

Yesterday I met my two friends Maria and Sol near the Galleria in Daejeon. We had lunch at a Japanese Noodle place and then went to Starbucks. I had been hoping that they might have Pumpkin Spice Latte. No they did not. I got a Green Tea Frapucino instead. It was very good. I had my friend Maria ask in Korean if they would be getting the Pumpkin Spice Latte at all and they told her they had her for a Limited Time not very long ago and now they did not have it any more and their were no plans for them to get it again. I was really hoping they would get it sometime this Fall.Enjoying a yummy Pumpkin Spice Latte is one of my favorite things to do in the Fall.
We had a short Korean lesson while we were and Starbucks and I learned a very important phrase-Hanguk mal motheyo. Which means I don't speak Korean. I sometimes have people come up to me and ask me questions etc. in Korean . The other day someone did that and from what I could understand they needed directions. So I think in cases like that Hanguk mal motheyo will be very helpful.
My friends joked that I pronunced it so well and said it so perfectly that some people I say it to will be like Yes you do speak Korean-you just did-LOL.
After Starbucks we went shopping at Galleria. We just looked around as most things were very expenisve-so nothing was bought but it was nice to look.
Then my friend Sol needed to leave to go meet her family for a Birthday Party. Maria and I went to get her hair done at a nearby Salon. I enjoyed looking at Korean Vogue and listening to the really good music that was being played in the Salon. The music was a lot of great 80s and 90s Music in English-it was very nice. The salon was upscale and you could get free Lattes and icecream etc. They even had cocktails. My friend got her hair dyed red and got a really great hair cut.
We then headed for the bus and I now know how to get home by bus from the Galleria area.
We ran into a nice friend of Maria's on the bus and had a pleasant bus ride. It was a nice day with friends.
