Olympic torch makes it to Seoul

As I took the bus through central Seoul today we battled our way through streets lined with hundreds of Chinese overseas students clad in the red flag waving banners proclaiming peace and love as the Olympic flag made its way to South Korea.

Actually, I didn't know those details at the time. I just assumed it was just a big anti-protest thing - but I guess it was. The Chinese people have emerged to let us know that their country is promoting well-being in this time of world unity. Despite threats of Seoulites staging a protest, police, tight security, and masses of Chinese supporters appear to have won the day.
