The 63 Building

If you ask any Korean about something they're proud which Korea posesses they'll more than likely bring up The 63 Building. Most everyone else thinks "meh, they're not much to it;" as you can see in this first picture. (Its the "tall one") Its 60 stories above ground and 3 below and is the tallest building in Korea. I figured I might as well go and get a good view of Seoul from the top. Unfortunately the smog was pretty bad, so we couldn't get a clear view. Here is just an idea of what the majority of the housing looks like. We so enderingly label them "the Domino Buildings." I guess its homes like this, which make it possible for over 10 million people to live in this city...
From up there you can get a good idea of how big Seoul is.


When we were finished I decided to fly down instead of taking the elevator.

I love the airplane photo. I think it is my favourite Korea picture thus far.

Off to work now.

That is a fantastic shot of the sun behind you and the parachute.

Hilarious.

Keep well, Sarah!
