South korea- day 6

Day 6 Sat 8/1
We had a good last day in South Korea. I got up and ran in the morning. I got a lot of stares. Koreans don't run. They have a lot of hills here and I ran the streets, so got a lot of stoplights too, but I love to run in new places. When I got home, we packed all of our stuff into our backpacks and have officially started the life of a backpacker: carrying everything you have with you, with no real destination, and no where to "go back" to until the journey is complete. We had lunch with one of Maggie's friends, Courtney, from Canada. She was really fun and we went to an American restaurant and de stressed over lunch from a stressful packing morning. We took a cab to lunch with all of our stuff, and when we got to our restaurant, located on a overly busy, six lane street, and as we unloaded, my backpack and I face-planted into the curb. The trip had begun. In the afternoon, we headed down to Incheon, by the airport, to visit Maggie's nice friends, Emily and Brian, who were from California and have lived here for a few years. Maggie had to give her key back today, and Emily and Brian live closer to the airport and in a much nicer part of town. In the afternoon, we had wine and snacks on their roof with a beautiful view and strolled around beer fest. Beer fest was a big outside fair type event with a great band. After the fair, we made our way to the bar, liquor burger, for dinner and to hang out. The bar was full of foreigners and Maggie, Emily, and Brian knew every single person there. Around 11, a group of about ten of us rushed back to Maggie's so some of her friends could complete their fantasy football drafts.
