Korea- Travel and Getting Lost

 We booked it back to Seoul after our adventure in Danyang.  For some reason renting a car on a trip where we returned it at the original location wasn't bad, but taking it one way was hundreds of dollars.  We decided we had to try the KTX high speed rail to Busan.  Some Americans may know the great movie Train to Busan.  Wilson had a park he wanted to see so we had planned to get off in a little podunk town.  Unfortunately for us, Korean towns have a little two to three letters at the end of a city name.  We wanted to head to Gyeong-Ju.  We accidently bought a ticket for Gyeong-San.  This was the equivalent of going trying to make it to Charlottesville and ending up in Waynesboro; aiming for a city full of historical sites and ending up in a working class neighborhood with no hotels.  Since we had been on the last train, the station manager was sweet and let us sleep in the station.  Wilson made a fort with chairs to stay off the cold floor and I used children's books as a sleeping mat.  We eventually made it to our destination, which, its fair to say, didn't have many tourists since we were often the only people anywhere. 

From Movie Train to Busan, total badass Ma Dong-seok
