Happy holidays to all from chilly, flurrying Seoul, where we are grateful to have carried our ski parkas around for ten months, predicting they'd see the light of day at this point.  With our willingness to do travel planning at an all-time low, the weather stepped in to entertain us for awhile, as did curious locals who wondered why on earth we were roaming around a residential neighborhood on the outskirts of Seoul in December.  "To see what it's like".  Peace out, y'all :)
