I’m on vacation at the moment in the southern areas and islands of Korea. We’re part of a tour with some foreign friends who are celebrating their wedding anniversary. We get our first chance to see Bosung, the capital of the green tea industry in Korea. We’ll also go to a sauna, as well as go to a few islands that have extensive gardens. There is a three day weekend, so we’ll be able to head out and see the sights with a day to recover on Monday.
We don’t know the makeup of the rest of the tour, but there is a high chance it consists of nothing but really old Korean people, since no one else would go on a bus tour if they could drive. I’m a little worried about the makeup of our tour, because if there is a karaoke machine on the bus, all of this will end in headaches and tragedy. A chance to sing on a bus tour is like crack for old Korean people, and they have no concept of “volume control” on any bus rocking down the highway.
In addition, there is always the potential embarrassment of nude saunas, as well as everything else multi-cultural that could end up blowing up in our face that we have yet to realize. Excitement! Intrigue! Tone Deaf Elderly People!
Will I survive? Only time will tell! Return in a few days to see the results of the tour after these canned posts are finished to see.
