Seoul's got soul...and lots of people - 02 SEPT

So I'll start of with a bit of backtracking...

I left Amsterdam for my leg of the trip heading out to Seoul, South-Korea. I spent a day there, but didn't feel like hanging around the airport terminal for 12 hours. Luckily there are a lot of 'one-day-transfers' in Seoul, so they have one day tours prepared for ya! How convenient!

Had a nice little tour group with which I visited the biggest Buddhist temple in Seoul, one of the palaces, a nice market street with all sorts of stuff for sale, had lunch in a small restaurant, typical South Korean meal (don't hear me complaining, yum) and a newly designed 'river' which ran through the center of the city. Strange to see there's pretty much only highrises here, but then again, this one city needs to hold more people than the whole of the Netherlands...go figure...

back on the airport I crashed (hadn't really slept much, was trying to prevent a jet-lag) and when I woke up I could walk into the next plane taking me to Singapore!
