Staying close
A brief lap of Dunsan-ro
I know I go to bed early and don't head out to the rape clubs or roll around drunk on a scooter at midnight showing off my perm like the cool kids do, but I do at least go more than 5m from the hotel.
Staying in my hotel is a bunch of German engineers, I know they are German and engineers cause I heard them in the lobby speaking German and one of them said friction coefficient.
Anyway, This is my 4th night here, which included a weekend, and every time I come to the hotel, the Germans are out the front of the convenience store that is connected by a door to the hotel lobby drinking beer from a can. It does not matter if its 9pm at night, 5pm in the afternoon, or even 1pm on a Sunday, that is where they are, all of them, in a group.
I cannot imagine anything worse. I like to assume they are here on assignment for 1 week and all they have seen of Daejeon is the inside of the sewage treatment plant they are working on and the beer aisle of the convenience store.
Enough of my arrogance. Here are 4 boring photos.
Here is a back street with colourful lights.
And while I am crossing the road, why not stand in traffic and take a photo?
The Galleria basement did not yield many results, so I headed up to the 12th floor. They have ditched tradition and put the food court on the upper level, not the basement level. But alas, there was no roof garden.
Bulgogi. 100% Australian beef, allegedly. The black things are black beans. That was unexpected.
Tomorrow is not a hiking day, maybe I will go see the rocket.
