Before I continue, let me say that roulette is the stupidest fucking game ever. Not that its any less ridiculous than slot machines or craps or any of those games, but I played roulette this week and the only thing dumber are the serious-faced gambling addicts who sit there and study the roulette “stats” as if it meant something.
Back to Seoul:
The next morning I went for a lovely walk up Namsan, a mountain/hill in the center of the city, at the top of which lies Seoul Tower.
Before I went up, I slept in past the checkout hour. Your key activates the lights in your room. A lady walked in at checkout time and removed the key from the socket, leaving me in darkness, until I woke up and pulled back the curtains.
Here are some pictures of the walk up, including a frozen waterfall:
