On a Clear Day…

It’s not often the air is so clear here. Usually its a hazy gray due to a combination of pollution and humidity.  Some of the privates schools were closed on the 20th for a planned protest in Seoul. They aren’t happy about some of the new rules which will make some school close by 10pm from their current time of midnight.  But that’s another story.  I took advantage of the day off and fine weather and went rock climbing with some friends.

From the mountain, sometimes it’s hard to even see the city it’s so hazy. Not today.

Even these pictures don’t do justice to the fabulous weather and views we had while climbing. For being late October, the weather was awesome. The trees are starting to turn, so maybe by next month we’ll start to see some real color. It’s still really green.
