Here's the Lotte World Tower. The 6th tallest building in the world. And somehow I'm not at all bothered that I didn't go up it. Weird, right?

Seen on the way to the metro station. Didn't Korea actually throw their president who tried to overstep his power into jail? I'll admit that I'm not the most read-in to that whole situation, but I'm pretty sure the rest of their govt. said 'heck no' and booted him the heck out. If only...

So this brings me back to my hotel and the end of my night. And realistically, the end of my trip. I do have some optional sightseeing I *could* do tomorrow before my flight, but right now I'm thinking that I don't REALLY need to see yet another palace or temple.

So I'll probably just sleep in tomorrow, have a nice breakfast, and try to figure out how to pack everything back up to fit in my luggage and not go over my weight limit. Lol. Then head to the airport and just hang out till my flight. Maybe work on some video stuff. And my thread of threads.

It's been a good trip. A long trip. A VERY long trip. Honestly, this probably could have been three separate ~10-14 day trips. And would probably have been a bit less stressful both to plan and execute. Am I glad I did this trip? Absolutely. Do I have any plans to do another trip this long? Nope.

So this trip has covered something like 23 different theme parks and over 70 different coasters, across 3 different countries plus 2 special administrative regions, which use 5 different currencies and speak 5 different languages. Plus a bunch of cool other sightseeing and non-coaster experiences.

I had good days, and I had frustrating days. Some days were both. Lol But overall, I had fun. I enjoyed myself. I sweated so so so much. Seriously, it's so hot and humid here this time of year. It's brutal. But it's been good overall. But now it's time to go home. And so we shall.
