Helen in the
Korean-style room at the Seokyo Hotel |
 |
Paul, in the same
room, yet filling it more |
 |
All
mod cons in the room... |
 |
... bar
one. This is the bed (which, to be fair, was surprisingly
comfortable) |
 |
The City Hall
square in Seoul |
 |
An eye-catching
billboard in the Tongdaemun Market area |
 |
Paul at the
Tongdaemun Stadium entrance |
 |
The
football stadium on the left, and the baseball stadium on the right. |
 |
Inside
the Tongdaemun Football Stadium - an oasis of calm from the market
outside |
 |
 |
Helen by the
stadium scoreboard |
 |
Looking north
from the foot of the TV Tower at sunset |
 |
Seoul's
TV Tower (the view is unbelievable, but none of the photos came out in
the dark/half-light) |
 |
Paul at the front
door |
 |
Helen and Darrell
in the English Pub in Itaewon |
 |
The foot of the
infamous "Hooker Hill" in Itaewon. |
 |
Back in Sinchon,
outside the VooDoo Bar |
 |
Helen in Free
Crocodiles Pub (she didn't like the beer) |
 |
On the bevvy with
a couple of Korean lads - our search for dark beer led us to this place,
where they had dark Becks. |
 |
Drinking soju and
eating fruit - two things I would live to regret the following day |
 |
Drunks with swords
- always a good idea |
 |
Paul and Helen in
grainy close-up |

Helen with a
stunned Korean girl |
