Yesterday was our last day in Japan. We have 2 stops in Korea before the end of the cruise. Today we are docked in Busan, Korea's 2nd largest city at 3.2 million people and also the 6th largest port in the world.


Our tour took us to Gamcheong Culture village.  Our guide said we'd see how people in Busan used to live and I thought we'd see old buildings and people making rice flour by hand along the lines of St Fagans or Upper Canada Village.  However, the place we went looked perfectly modern and all the guide really meant was that the people here didn't live in the high rise condos that dominate the skyline.



About 60 to 70 percent of Korea is mountains, so with little space to build almost all the buildings are high rise condos. As you can see from the views.  

Back onboard, Becky and I were invited to a Sail Away party on the Helipad.
