Second last day...

by sweetpea1984 @ 2007-03-23 - 07:57:48

Today is my second last day but please make sure you come back and check for updates in the next few days cause there is still lots more to come (JSA - tour to the Joint Security Area)
I am staying in a youth hostel today because Young had to go to the army for a day to refresh his knowledge on using guns - God save us!!!
Now as I am typing, next to me there is a 60 year old Japanese woman looking at the computer screen and talking to herself quite loud and sometimes she just goes "oooohhhhh!!!!!" A bit distracting but nevermind...

Seoul is the place where motorcyclists get really upset and give you dirty looks just because you dare to walk on the pavement. It wouldn't make sense to them to use the roads instead of the pedestrian paths, no... and I tell you what they are really dangerous and scary, I stopped listening to my iPod lately because I am afraid that I'll be run over by one of them...

Seoul is also famous for:

traffic jams:

Just the usual traffic jam scene...

big markets - they are huge and never ending. Surely they believe quantity is more important than quality... and of course they sell everything and even more! Men are clapping and shouting non-stop just to draw some attention to their goods but obviously because we are in 21st century Korea, why shout when you can talk to a microphone and can be heard louder...
Fancy any of the food?!

Fish market
Dongdaemun Fashion Market
Food market. Bon appetit

At lunch time women deliever a lot of food trays on their head. I have no idea how they do it in a busy market with millions of people and trillions of motorcyclists around. All my respect for the dinner ladies! :)

Meals on wheels..... sorry on heads!
