Aboard a captured American spy ship
A morning aboard the USS Pueblo, a captured American spy ship: This morning we went aboard the USS Pueblo which was another one of the sights I had really been looking forward to. To carry on in the vein to which we had become accustomed we watched a DVD about the capture of the Pueblo before we got to explore it. The U.S maintains that the Pueblo was captured while in international waters, however the DPRK maintain that it had strayed into ...
A propaganda filled morning...

Ilyushin in the morning, Mass Games in the evening
... new Air Koryo plane (by new I mean less than 50 years old) and announced to me the good news!
Next very unrelieved moment: The new Air Koryo plane was not there for us. It was there for the flight after ours. We had to go on the old plane.
