Super excited to see the DMZ today! Tbt that time I saw it from the other side: catehuston.com/blog/2013/09/23/north-korea-july-2013-day-4/
-
I heard it was way more uptight on this side and so far that is definitely the case. Guide warns us we are lucky! Tour could close tomorrow.
-
No photos of military (NK we had to ask, some said yes) and no photos of the north, but I guess I took photos of the north when I was there.
-
I didn't realize until today that the NK / SK divide was another product of the allies / Soviet divvying up after WW2.
-
Noooooooo this tour does not include the JSA. So gotta try and get on another one that does. Gutted.
-
Ai looks like I cannot get on this tour unless I change my flight. I'm about to cry.
-
Certain I will not be allowed to change my flight. For reasons I don't understand (latent optimism?) I'm on hold with AirCanada anyway.
-
It is of course obscenely expensive and requires rebooking my entire trip back to CO. Fuck. I guess I have to come back to SK?
-
Pretty much in tears over this which seems a little irrational.
-
Okay I am going on Friday. Taking a detour with all my worldly possessions. Then will cab to the airport. This will probably be fine.
-
The tour guy was like "this will be very expensive" and I was like "cheaper than coming back to SK."
-
Also tbqh probably still cheaper than when I met a hedgehog for the first time. Achieving life goals costs $$, yo.
