seoul searching

Susan and I paid a visit to the 11 million people of Seoul, Korea this past week (she for work, and I as a tag-along). We partook in the quintessential Seoul experiences of public bath houses, private DVD bang rooms, busy markets, kimchi and barbecued beef. The cold weather, conifers and ice rinks made us a bit homesick for a good Minnesota winter. We also made a side trip to the heavily protected demilitarized zone and saw one of the four tunnels the North has made attempting to gain entry into the South. Now its back to cozy little Singapore for me, and a week in Minnesota for Susan. Click on the photo for more images from South Korea...

wow, that skating rink is really cool! It reminds me of the Fair midway at night. Great pictures. The unidentified food is a little intimidating. Looks like you got one border guard to smile. Um, are you serious about the king and the donuts? Why is there a parade in front of the donut shop? Is it two-for-one day?
