Our trip for the day was to Seoul for shopping. We went to the traditional market in Seoul. Streets lined with open air shops with most everything imaginable for sale...clothes, food, souvenirs of all kinds, electronics, etc. I didn't see any big appliancea, but I wouldn't doubt they could be found. Prices were good, and you could bargain with most merchants. Team members bought a variety of gift for people back home, and a few for themselves, no doubt.
As you might expect, traffic in Seoul was horrendous. With the fairly chaotic habits of Korean driving and streets packed everywhere with every type of vehicle imaginable, it took 20 minutes to go three or four blocks. We did a little better leaving Seoul.
Returning to Cheonan, we visited the dental office of Dr. Moon, who is the coordinator for Rotary in all of Korea. His office was very interesting. It occupied four floors of a large office building. He employs 28 dentists and has an overall staff of nearly 130. They are a soup-to-nuts dental practice, offering everything from children's dentistry and orthodontics to oral surgery and implants...wow!
We finished the day dinner and homestays.
