The North

Today I came a mere stones throw from North Korea. Near a town called 반주 or 바주 or something they've built this observation deck so people can look through binoculars and try to see what's going on over there. Koreans talk a lot about unification and many are hoping the North and South will come together again someday. This observation place has all kinds of stuff from North Korea that you can buy. I was told most of it is overpriced and of inferior quality.



I like how mysterious it looks with all that fog. That's the fog of Communism, which is emitted from Kim Jung Il's mind. But there's no need to worry, because between pick-up games of basketball, these guys at this military base keep a watchful eye on the border.


Korea sends their tallest, strongest, and most awesome looking army guys to the military bases along the border.
