Busan, South Korea - March 16, 2017

Busan is the second largest city in South Korea (after its capital Seoul) and is the nations primary seaport.  It ha high towers, ancient Buddhist temples and a busy business district.  It has a history starting in 4000 BC and a long list of dynasty's throughout the centuries.  There is a history of US and United Nations involvement.  In 1950 attempts to unify the country failed and there s a North and South Korea.

We went to a cultural center and saw some traditional Korean dance.  Unfortunately the tour ran late and we only saw the last 15 minutes of the performance.  The ships tour was not good and I feel like there is still much to see.

There is also a large fish market and a the variety of fish you see is incredible.  They catch, sell and eat anything that moves in the ocean!

Heading for Hiroshima tomorrow.

Still having a good time.

Regards to all.
