Seoul after dark

The previously mentioned Tuesday night out on the town, courtesy of Dawn's camera. After a large group dinner, a few of us cut out and walked to a nearby neighborhood with a bunch of bars and clubs. Todd, Walter, Dawn and I represented the 119th A-100 with the utmost class.


And then later, class went out the window and Karaoke flew in. Dawn and Todd sing a soulful duet, and it appears Carl (Tokyo) reacts to the song by suppressing vomit.


And so the night progresses. Eugene (Seoul, and our guide through the Seoul nighttime netherworld) shooting his six guns as Walter chugs a quart of milk.

Milk?

We guessed later that it must have been delivered to our private Karaoke room with tea or something.



And so the night comes to an end, of sorts. We headed back to the hotel for a nightcap, where we all realized that a nightcap was like a sweater on a dog, completely unnecessary.


Walter and his wife, Alex, are expecting a kid around November 10 or so. Since Rangoon's standard of medical care is similar to Vientiane's, they will be spending quality time in Bangkok too. We are both staying at the Emporium Suites, an extended stay place attached to a mall, grocery store, movie theater, and the Sky Train and a few minutes from Samitivej Hospital. So that should be fun.

Walter and I plan to keep each other company at the pool while we wait to hear how the ladies' respective labors go. Posted by Picasa
