We definitely didn’t bring enough clothes with us ❄️🌨️🥶 -J 🇰🇷 Nov 27, 2024 ∞ And then we woke up to snow… 🥶 -S 🇰🇷 Nov 26, 2024 ∞ A brewery taproom hidden behind a vending machine? Sounds fun! Unfortunately, the beer was awful. -S 🇰🇷 Nov 26, 2024 ∞ Looking forward to trying out “happy” tomorrow morning. I’ll probably pass on “cow” though… 😂 -S 🇰🇷 Nov 26, 2024 ∞ We made sure to stop at Craic House to mark off another country on our quest to drink a Guinness at an Irish Pub in 32 different countries (this makes 14/32). It’s also the first Irish pub I’ve visited since my dad passed away 🫤 -S 🇰🇷 Nov 26, 2024 ∞ Afternoon at South Korea’s War Memorial We spent the afternoon at South Korea’s War Memorial museum. This was an interesting overview of South Korea’s military history from the wars leading to the Three Kingdoms (~244 to 927 AD), the wars of Goreyo to Japanese occupation (936 - 1920), the Liberation from Japan in 1945 through the Armistice with North Korea in 1953, then through South Korea’s involvement in the Vietman, and finally South Korea’s involvement in military conflicts through the present. While not the best military museum we’ve been to, I felt the overview was pretty decent. I did feel that the Korean War info was a bit skimpy, but with the ongoing tensions with North Korea, I wonder if sensitivity is needed/warranted. In any event, I learned quite a bit today. -J 🇰🇷 Nov 26, 2024 ∞ Well played, Subway. -S 🇰🇷 Nov 26, 2024 ∞ This place is available for everyone. -S 🇰🇷 Nov 26, 2024 ∞ After the cathedral, we wandered some of the streets of Seoul, taking it all in. The pastries looked fabulous, but we were still full from breakfast. -J 🇰🇷 Nov 26, 2024 ∞ We also visited the historic Myeongdong Cathedral, just around the corner from our hotel. -S 🇰🇷 Nov 26, 2024 ∞ Sungnyemun Gate (aka Namdaemun/South Gate) was one of the main gates of the Seoul City Wall, the fortress that encircled Hanyang, the capital of the Joseon dynasty (1392-1910). Originally constructed in 1398(!), it’s been damaged and repaired many times since—but remains a national treasure -S 🇰🇷 Nov 26, 2024 ∞ Greetings from Seoul! We have two full days here, our first “stopover” of the trip. Given the cold weather and our expectation that we’ll be back again in the next few years, our plan is to ease into the trip with a relaxed visit and a slower pace than usual. -S 🇰🇷 Nov 26, 2024 ∞ 🇰🇷 We had a 12-hour flight from Seattle to Seoul with Asiana Airlines. While it wasn’t a bad flight and I’d definitely fly Asiana again, it was so nice to see the map showing us preparing for landing in Seoul last night. Long flights are definitely the cost of fun adventuring. But—we’re here! -J Nov 25, 2024 ∞ Our last American craft beer until March? Very likely. We’re just hoping it’s not the last good craft beer until March… Nov 24, 2024 ∞ Although we’re missing an ASU home game, surprisingly, we can watch the game on our flight to Seattle! Go Devils! Nov 24, 2024 ∞ And…..we’re off! Cheers to 100 days of adventure 🍻 Nov 24, 2024 ∞ Packed to the gills! Our bags weighed in just underweight 😲 You’d think we were leaving for awhile!
