Travelogue-Seoul Departure/Tokyo Arrival

Seoul inaugurated me with rain, kissed me with snow, and ushered me out the way I came in. Theres no doubt its still winter in Seoul. Toky welcomed me back with the warm embrace of spring. But the harsh reality of it is that the exchange rate is so bad for us coming over. During my second or third trip, the exchange rate was around 130 yen to the dollar. Today it was 87. Ouch! Its been going down since that high and I hope it ends soon.

On the way in today, I noticed something new in the skyhline. I don't know what it is and its still being built. I dont remember seeing last year so it must be new
