We have wacky family vacations with many car mishaps, we eat wacky food (this week it was fermented soybean paste from a Japan that looked like stringy cobwebby Rice Krispie treats but smelled like rotten road kill), we have loud, wacky family gatherings. People new to our family are often shocked at the volume level. The comparison between us and the Griswolds isn't necessarily direct, but it is recognizable. It is kind of a general "off-the-wall-ness" that pervades both our family and the original Griswolds.
Clark seems to make friends wherever he goes. He talks to people and asks them where he can find some really "good" local restaurants where he can find interesting and authentic foods. He asked many a taxi driver in Korea where he could find "Kay-gogi" but they all just pretended they didn't understand. They figured no American really wanted to eat Fido Fricasse. But they don't know Clark!
"But, Ellen!! I found us some dinner!"
