seoul, korea

while being so close, we wanted to visit korea. we stayed in seoul for 5 days and basically did nothing :s

we arrived on a sunday evening, both very tired and hungry so shot across the road to try and find some food and to abishs DELIGHT found a dominos pizza place, as you could imagine dinner was decided.

the second day wasnt much better, woke up late and didnt venture out until maybe 4 or 5pm again just for food, made it a little further this time however... about a 20 min walk to a small shopping centre that had a bulk supermarket.

the third day we knew we had to get out of the hotel, so caught the subway into downtown seoul and found some markets.

the fourth day we didnt really know what to do so went to the subway, caught a train and just kinda wandered around.... somewhere in seoul ....... by this time it was very clear that korean people dont see foreigners very often, some crazy looks going on there!!

then finally on the fifth day we had a morning flight out of seoul. we didnt take many photos either, the ones below are pretty much it. it couldve been much better we realise but when it came down to it we were both just too lazy :D
