Korea - last one

Ok, last one!






Vending machine / phone booth!


These are the best smelling things in the world... some sort of peppery beef burger... so good!





Selling food can get boring... so accordion will fill out you time!













Home time...

Korea - Mostly Food...

This one is mostly food :)





Fried pufferfish!



Today is not so foggy, I can finally see the mountains in the distance from my hotel!


Technomart shopping center is freakin weird. About a thousand shops all selling the same thing and a weird mix of ancient stuff mixed in, over about 9 giant levels.





Yum yum street food :) You buy it and eat it in front of the stall. I got some spicy yakitori style thing. Very strange just standing there eating it!


I forgot my camera, so it's a quick phone shot of lunch... needless to say I skipped dinner tonight!

Korea Sunday Afternoon

This food place is in the Coex Plaza.




Mmmm beef jerky bar...


At the Namdaemun market:


Fresh octopus!



These are grubs of some kind, dried:


Rolls up, deep fried hot dogs...


Old Canon film cameras from the 80s. Cool store!


The Cheonggyecheon stream is a pretty stream which runs through the river. It was concreted over in the 60s but restored and renovated in 2006. It's even got fish in it. Apparently, just having the stream running and uncovered lowers the temperature in the area by 3.6 degrees! I want to visit at night, because it's completely lit up.



These are like giant corn puff things.


Statue at the Korean Folk Art Museum.


Part of the Gyeongbokgung Palace.




Dinner! Dolsot Bibimbap and a nice big bottle of Cass.
