On to Japan

Having made our way to Busan it was time to say goodbye to South Korea and make our way over the sea to Japan.

Busan is the second largest city in South Korea, after Seoul of course. It is the largest port city in South Korea and one of the largest ports in the world.

We were making our way over to Japan on one of these jetfoils. Supposedly the one we were going to ride used to do Channel runs between Dover and Calais before being moved over here.

Bye bye South Korea!!


The journey itself was fine once I got used to the boat banking when it turns. Not something I'd experienced before. The in-flight entertainment was "Lassie Come Home" which rather weirdly went down very well with everyone. A big cheer went up when Lassie escaped from the dog-catchers fence on his third attempt. All very silly indeed!

3 hours or so later we arrived in Fukuoka for the start of the Japan leg. One week in and three to go.
