Chasing the perfect Fuji shot

Just wondering how far the War Museum is from the Port? Just realised Dad was in the Korean War with the Navy.

Not sure of the exact distance but a fairly long bus ride. Looking up the Cemetery web site they give directions but not from the Port. Google maps says walk 10 minutes from the port to the Busan Post Office bus station and tke the 134 bus to the cemetery. It takes 35 minutes.

Now we are at the fish market. Had done the trip here before but I knew it was close to where the shuttle bus goes from and is in an area with lots of restaurants. So I went through the markets again. luckily the guide wasn't that interested in fish so a quick visit and then off to the general markets which hold no interest for me so I took my leave.










And the cough fish which is really a worm.

Then out to the stalls and back to the main road.

A candy store.


I'm not sure this is an accurate name.


I then set out to look for a restaurant to eat. Unfortunately even though this was a Tuesday it was a public holiday because the next day they were having elections for their National Parliament. Saw some interesting places. I don't think I wanted to try a dung house stir fry.





I settled on a BBQ place. Pretty pricey in the evenings relatively speaking.


But they had lunch time specials.


Now that is just over $A14 but it was for 2 people. It was though less meat for the 2 people than the serving size for 1 at night. so I thought why not. This is what they served first.


However more was served and when I finished the Kim Chee they brought me another bowl. these were the bowls at the end though they had removed 3.


I had been looking at some of the street food at first but although it looked good I was full.

A couple of shots whilst waiting for the shuttle bus. their bus system seems well orgaised. On the main streets ofte bus lanes in the middle of the road with bus stations usually at an intersection.




Then back to the ship and a walk around the top deck after golf. Several ship building yards.

People camping at the port.

That night was a casual night. I decided a bit of decorum was warranted.


Mrsdrron had the foie gras and I the pho.




Mrsdrron had the rump steak and I the chicked Aloo.




She then had the coconut rice pudding but I stuck with the ginger and kaffir lime creme brulee.

We sailed quite late so I was able to capture the changing lights on the bridge.

 

[drron]

Now we are sailing out of Busan.

The next day was a sea day. Pretty cold and a bit of a swell meaning the pool wasn't that popular.


Lunch at Kaiseki.






Not that far from the coast.




That night was the Venetian Society party. First our Polish Captain and then the Future cruise Consultant aka Venetian society host.




Announcing some of the achievements. We were 4th in the number of nights.


And the night ended with a couple of numbers from the lead singer.
