Even though we are flying home today our flight isn’t until 7:15 PM so we had a few remaining hours to take in Seoul before we head home. Don’t tell Jenn that she didn’t want to get out of bed today but reluctantly did after I brought her Starbucks in bed and helped pack up the last few remaining items. We departed the hotel after 10 AM and made our way to Gwangjang Market on the subway. This was our first time on the subway in Seoul and after we figured out how to get the tickets the rest was relatively straightforward.

Today marks the last day of our trip. It’s hard to imagine that we’ve already reached it but then again Jenn got to Tokyo five days before I did so she’s had a much longer trip. We woke up this morning with those last-day vibes, sleeping in, and soaking up every last second of the trip. We went down to Starbucks at 10 AM and got our normal hot chocolate and iced caramel macchiato. From there we grabbed a Taxi for our first stop of the day Leeum Museum of Art. 

Today marks our last tour of this trip and it's the one we were both most excited for. After getting room service a little after 6 AM (a bread basket with orange juice and coffee) we met our tour guide Tiger in the lobby to start an 8+ hour tour to the DMZ.

We’ve traveled enough to understand that the first day in any city has its own unique set of challenges and today in Seoul was no different. We opted not to go with a tour today and instead wanted to experience Seoul on our own.

After a very busy day of touring yesterday, we were back out again early today. We left our hotel room a little after 7 AM and grabbed drinks and pastries at Starbucks before we met our tour guide Vincent downstairs at 8 AM. Today we had an 8-hour Northern Taiwan tour that would take us about an hour north of Taipei. We got in Vincent’s Mitsubishi and were off.

After a great dinner last night and an early night in we both woke up relatively refreshed and ready to go this morning. After a quick run, we went down to breakfast which was included with our American Express booking.
