my last stop was a day long layover in seoul, south korea. took a train into the city from the award winning incheon airport - which was built on a reclaimed island out in the ocean. then i took the seoul metro to a random place, and walked around looking for some breakfast, which i finally found at a dunkin donuts (they're everyhwhere in korea!). then i spent the rest of the morning walking toward and trying to find my way up a large mountain in the middle of the city that has a tower on it that i went up to get an amazing view. by some measures seoul is the second largest urban agglomeragtion in the world. it was a very nice city, although seemed a little drab to be honest after the glitz and glamor of bangkok. i then wandered some more, found a cheap korean buffet which could not have been better, and then found my way back to the airport, only falling asleep on the metro a couple times on the way.
