Being inwards Korea is in addition to therefore unlike from beingness inwards many of the other Asian countries. For example, in addition to most importantly, at that topographic point is john newspaper inwards the populace restrooms. And at that topographic point ARE populace restrooms! Wow!

This would brand a corking introduce for many of our manful mortal meaning others, I think!)

However, having said that, things ARE run rattling efficiently here! The omnibus is fast in addition to comfortable in addition to at that topographic point are no goats or chickens on board amongst me!

Also, manifestly many Russian in addition to Filipino sailors, every bit nosotros flora out final nighttime when nosotros took a walk in addition to flora both Russian Karaoke Bar in addition to a Filipino Karaoke Bar.

Today nosotros went to the fish market. There were all kinds of fish, octopus, squid, crabs in addition to more! It was packed amongst stalls total of frozen, dried, fresh in addition to LIVE animals in addition to was a sight to behold. I saw an octopus escape it’s bucket in addition to larn away in addition to when I pointed it out to the lady, she but laughed.

Another corking highlight of the 24-hour interval was that nosotros flora a novel shellfish. I don’t know the scream but it is the strangest looking thing. It is scarlet amongst footling bumps -- it almost looks similar a tuber. I can’t explicate it. We were sitting close a vendor, watching him shuck them, in addition to he allow us endeavor one, straightaway from the shell, raw in addition to salty. And it was good! Then he gave us a shot each of Souju (Korean spirit) in addition to fifty-fifty allow us accept a photograph amongst him. We offered him to a greater extent than or less coin but he but laughed at us in addition to sent us on our way.
