Pictures from Korea - Day 6 (Yeongam)

Day 5 was a travel day. Day 6 was Henry's first day of playing go at the Kuksu Mountain international go festival. He won all of his matches the first day.

It was a soggy day that started off with historical sites and ended, as all days in Seoul eventually did, with a pilgrimage to Line Friends.

Line Friends

The first thing George and Henry noticed when we checked into our hotel in Seoul was a duck dressed as a chicken and other animal mashups at the front desk. Now they are obsessed with the Line Friends and have dragged us to about half a dozen of their stores. The customs officials will be puzzled when the only thing we have to declare is "Sally."
