Seoul, May 2007
In a spur of the moment decisions we jumped on the bullet train from Busan city to Seoul. First, we visited the Insa-dong cultural market. We got directions from some French Canadians we bumped into. They pointed us to a nearby parade that was going on for Buddha’s birthday this week.
Check out these cute monk babies.
Next up was Namdaemun, Seoul’s South gate (pictured at the top). It is also the location of a huge outdoor bazaar. You can buy anything here, including several knock offs versions of each. We also visited some other surrounding shopping areas.
We went shopping for hours at the Dongdaemun market, which is also the location of this, the East gate. The shopping centers are open here until 5am!
After shopping till nearly dropping, we took a rest at Deoksugung Palace.

A-saa! You were up my way. Looks like you had a good time and didn't get rained on, which is a plus.
