Moving right along
Posted Aug 7, 2000
Well, after 7 1/2 hours strapped in an aluminum tube, here I am in Anchorage, one of my favorite places. Landed at 10:30 PM and the sun was still above the horizon. Kids still out roller blading, grey haired tourists by the boat load toddling about town. On the way from the airport to the hotel, notice a rather large bull moose sauntering into a parking lot. Those guys own the town, and no one messes with them. The urban moose population numbers upwards of 300 and they have no fear of man nor beast. The main moose predator here is the Chevy Blazer or Toyota Land Cruiser. Still, it's kind of neat seeing them wander about. I was mugged by one a couple of winters ago, but that's a different story for another time.

Seoul

Well,
here I am today in Seoul Korea. I am currently in the COEX Mall, a rather large and crowded underground shopping and entertainment complex on the South side of the Han river in the Kangnam district. The mall opened in May and has become quite popular in the last couple of months. Plenty to eat, from Pizza Hut and Mcdonalds to Korean, Japanese and other foods. There is a 16 screen multiplex theater showing first run movies in English, with Korean subtitles. Just saw "The Perfect Storm" which, considering that it's monsoon season here, is quite apt. Off to Anchorage Alaska tomorrow for a bit of a change. Catch you later...
