i got Seoul
February 21, 2007greetings from ASIA. yeah, as you may have guessed from my oh-so-witty title, I’m currently in South Korea. I was brushing my teeth in the airplane bathroom, and the pilot comes on saying we have good news, and we have bad news. You never want to hear that, especially after 14 or so hours in the air. Apparently there was a massive fog covering most of Asia, and the Beijing airport was completely shut down. I don’t even remember what the good news was, but oh well…here I am in Seoul. I am currently in a Kinko’s, where the internets are strangely free. United put us up in the Intercontinental, which is a pretty sweet hotel. I have a king sized bed and a flat screen, so I guess life isn’t that bad. I even met a girl from Harbin, so I already have friends. yay! Her name is Snow, and she’s already offered to help me with my Chinese – which is pretty bad. She corrects my pronunciation for almost every word. ha. Anyway, I’m safe and sound, and quite jet lagged. Hopefully I’ll be in Beijing later tonight, depending on the weather, but right now I’m off to explore downtown Seoul…I thought I saw a Dunkin Donuts somewhere…
