Sweet sweet Lithuanian beer |
So 'The Wife' and I bussed it into Yeosu to check out the Expo. "The living ocean and coast" is the theme. In other news, South Korea just announced it will resume commercial 'scientific' whaling. Korea!
So in spite of the ocean theme and harbor-front location, we were told by some wiener with a nametag it was fobidden to stand next to the actual ocean. Too dangerous. Korea!
The whole thing was the cheesy shitshow I knew it would be. But you can make anything fun, with silliness and a pint. We bounced between international pavilions, sampling a varied array of food and drink. Mostly drink. The booths were staffed by actual folks from the various countries, but they all looked drained, dead-eyed, and bitchy. Except the Lithuanian bar-tendress who winked at me, haha.
The whole thing cost like 3 billion dollars. Discuss.
