South Korea
We spent three days in South Korea in December. We didn’t really have an agenda to explore the country, and because of our limited time, we never got our of Seoul.
We learned two key things upon arrival — Google Maps didn’t work in South Korea and Korea is rather cold in December.
Seoul melds the old with the new, and we enjoyed explorig both sides of this fascinating city.

A (Self) Tour of some Cultural Highlights
We take to the chilly streets of Seoul in an open-air tour bus. Are we nuts? No comment on that, but we sure were cold.

Squid, locks, city walls
We didn’t know anything about Korea, but that didn’t stop us from venturing out and doing a little exploring anyway.

As any traveler will tell you, travel days are hard
Today was a travel day, and these always take longer than you think they should and tend to suck the life right out of you.
This adventure runs on Google Maps.
So it was a little alarming when we got to South Korea and it didn't work.
South Korea in Pictures
We had no idea what to expect from South Korea, but, as you can see in these 100 or so pictures, it's a very interesting place with a rich history. We're looking forward to going back someday to explore more of this fascinating country.
