    I'm trying to get ready to rock and shake, was enough time, I can't even close, the box office took a cable car climbs. Lucky, a 30-minute cable car on arrival I was dehydrated. Lots of mist, rain coming up for me is not a good idea, but the vols were pretty cool Venus. In particular, he's hungry he did a really good cable car shelter of ddeok-Bok-GI.
