Recap...Seoul

Well, we haven't had a chance to write about our last day in Seoul, with all the olympic excitment going on...So here is a short recap:

We went to see the war memorial museum, which has a huge display of weapons on its outside yard, as well as some nice statues:






They also have an automatic blood pressure machine, so we tested to verify that we indeed have a blood pressure:


Outside, there were tons of policemen and armed vehicles. We barely managed to get into the subway, a second before they closed it:



We then learned why: look who stopped for a visit...



After picking our bags from the guesthouse, we took a LONG (almost 2 hours) subway ride, and searched for the pier. No signs were in sight. It took us more than an hour to find the damn place! But, the boat turned out to be very nice. It wasn't one large tatami room, but rather bunk beds and a great shower!



Next morning we woke up and found ourselves next to China's coastline!
