Busan train station. Our hotel was nearby. This is how Spencer st. shouldbe done. See? Its actually finished...
This was the view from our hotel in Sokcho. Actually, the hotel was about 10km out of Sokcho near Seoraksan national park. Not a bad view to wakeup to, is it?
This is actually North Korea. Photo taken from the Unification observatory about 40km north of Sokcho. Its the northern-most point of South Korea. Very weird place, really. Noone around except military and tourists. Interesting mix, no? Also, the beaches are gorgeous if you ignore the barbed wire, after all noone goes on them (you get shot at if you do...)
Now this is an interesting one. Its a wine from North Korea. Assuming I'm able to get this through customs, this will be an interesting thing to try. I believe its made from Bilberries and 'tis about 16% alcohol, if the label is to be believed. I will wait 'til a few of you guys are back from your European jaunts before opening this.
So that's it. Sorry for the long post. I've been building up some photos for a week or so. We are in Seoul now until the end of our trip, so I shouldpost a little more regularly... Anyway, catch you all later!
