So couple weeks teaching in South Korea and I hear about an Air Show that is taking place on a US Air Force Base about 2 hours away. After going to Miramar Air Show I was super excited to go to another show. After a 45 min bus ride into Seoul then about another hour n half on the subway (Got lost a few times taking wrong transfers) Finally ended up at Songtan station where there was supposed to be a shuttle to the Air Show...Turns out, no shuttle. But I could hear the jets overhead so I knew I was close. Asked for some directions and walked about a half mile down the road and found a really cool shopping district. It almost felt like being in the states. Everyone spoke English and stores, restaurants, shops...everything was catered towards military personal. After walking half a block I get to the Main Gate for the Air Force base. Got rerouted to a side gate for the air show and finally made it in. Not as good as the Miramar Air Show, but still really cool. In addition to the static displays and the actual show there were tons of toy vendors and food shops. Couldnt leave without having a real beef hamburger and deepfried something (Snickers wayyy better than oreos) After the show headed back to the shopping district with some friends that I met and grabbed a few drinks. Too bad Osan is so far away, would have liked to check out the nightlife since it was supposed to be a huge Halloween party night. In any case, definitely going back..maybe next time I can pick up a few things at the PX.
