Here's this watercraft scooting around the Han River. I call it a dolphin mobile, but that seems slightly insulting to dolphins. Dolphins, you're much cooler.
What were we doing at the Han River? Checking out some cherry blossoms which is weird because there are perfectly nice blossoms right in our neighbourhood and this was just much more crowded. But I did get to photograph these two seniors. (They're a couple, I think.)
I'm still fascinated by old Koreans. They're so tiny, wizened and wrinkly, but so out-and-about and put-together too.
Then we just sat in a big pile of dried up leaves and joked around and it was fun but somehow I got leaves all down my pants and it got crazy itchy but okay that was fun too.
Then, cops.
Just the usual pimple-faced mob, sitting around as an intimidating presence. There must have been some activists activating nearby.
Then, skates and bicycles! More fun than cops.
We took a random turn in Seoul and walked through some alleys and the sun was setting pretty and we grabbed some drinks and had some fun around the cheonggyecheon and were happy to see a sprinkling of Korean public drinking.
And, Nana still loves you.
Dove?
Pop-up menu, salami sandwich and broccoli soup.
This place.
Then we watched a movie that taught us a Korean cuss word and Vin Diesel was alright but it would have been funner if you were there.

Great pictures my friend.
Could you hire bikes in that area also? or was it just rollerblades? Rollerblades ARE pretty amazing. I'm glad I've seen this.

The roller-blade/bicycle playground kind of gives off the ice-skating arena vibe without the ice. That's pretty sick.
