I'm back from Seoul, reporting on my Halloween cruise experience. Although Halloween is
actually tonight and I'm not doing anything, it's OK because I celebrated it this past weekend.
There were about 600 people on the cruise, and all in all, it was pretty fun. Getting there, though, was a hot mess! The bus was supposed to take an hour, but we ended up traveling for 2.5 hours to get to the port. A late arrival was matched with two random stops and a crash on the bridge to the port -- all these things made us extra late for the cruise. Everyone was bitter! But then we arrived and they kicked it off with a cool fireworks show, complete with music and appropriate fanfare (it sounded like patriotic 4th of July music and not the Halloween type, but whatever).
While on the cruise, I saw people dressed up as everything from Iron Man to Effie Trinket from The Hunger Games. I mention those two because they took the cake on the costumes, clearly having put tons of time into making those things. In case you're wondering, I was dressed as Aladdin. Visual walkthrough below!
