Thursday

We went to the DMZ, here we are in front of the North Korea building in Panmunjeom, the border is that line in the gravel/rock behind us.



There were lots of cameras there:

A picture of the border, at least inside the building (it is the speakers). In this building you can cross over the DML to stand in North Korea:



(I have a lot more but there are too many to go through here)

We went to dinner with Sun, Jonghyeon and his parents were a video was made of me not being able to get noodles out the bowl very well with chopsticks but the orinetation is the wrong way so you will have to wait for that.

Then we walked back to the guesthouse because it wasn't so humid anymore, saw a lot of police officers in riot gear because there was a protest against the FTA scheduled for tonight, saw that the US Embassy was surrounded by buses to protect it and stayed up to watch the protestors walk down the main road from the roof of the place we are staying.

Today we are going to another palace, another market and a church. Tomorrow is the wedding, Sunday we will do something and Monday we go to where Serinia was stationed. Then home. I am sort of looking forward to going home, I miss my kitties.

Clever to notice how you're juuuuust to the right of the microphones. :)

And that is an absolutely adorable shirt in the first pic.

Actually, I couldn't find it but there is a picture of Serinia and I in North Korea. You could go to the other side of the table in that building.

They should stamp your passport on the other side of the table. That would be freakin' cool.

[bertine.livejournal.com]

I know! Alas, no stamp.

[joeylemur.livejournal.com]

Huh. I would've figured that was a complete no-no.

The building was built by the JSA and they can use any part of it.

Also, the right part is North Korea. :)

You and Serinia are so cute! Aagh! I can't wait until you post all your pics. Have fun at the wedding! Please describe it in detail. What's the FTA?

A lot of the pictures need color correction and just to be labelled and I don't want to take the time to do it.

You look adorable. Neat photos. :)

Thanks! I have some of the creepy North Korea guards looking at us through binoculars. You can sort of see him by the door in the picture of me and Serinia.
