First, we went to the "Electronics Market", which everyone told us had super cheap electronics. The electronics market we found had pretty average prices but 8 floors jam packed of cool gadgets, tvs, computers, etc.... After 4 floors we were lucky to get out of there with out anyone spending a dollar.
From there we wanted to see the Yongsan Market. After wandering around for awhile we stumbled upon a bunch of streets with vendors in the middle of them selling everything from clothes to pig's heads.
Then came the big excursion.......
Garrett came as close as anyone ever has to getting fired from the Blue Island Tribe. He had this wonderful idea for the band to find a buddhist temple somewhere in Seoul. He found it on a map, looked it up on the internet, and sold us all on the idea.....We thought sure that doesn't look that far away, it'll be cool............All we have to do is find Yonsei University because it is on the school's grounds, everybody there will know where it is.
We took 4 trains, walked atleast 6 miles uphill, asked 10 people for help, and bitched and moaned for about 6 hours before we miraculously found this temple. Finally, we arrived, and we were all glad we did. It was very, very cool.
The long trek back was not near as hard. First, we found a place called "chicken and beer" which we thought suited our needs at the time just fine. Then we found a bowling alley, which again sounded like a great idea, before heading back to say goodbye to our friends at Club Kaboo. We hung out for a bit before heading home for our last day in Korea. Our day of rest and relaxation was anything but that, but all in all we had a blast.
sorry!!!!!!
