Death Waiver

Today I officially signed my death waiver....im not playing. Today we went to the DMZ which is the demilitarized zone where North and South Korea face each other. It was at this place where the cease fire agreement was signed; however, both countries do stand guard 24 hours a day to make sure the agreement is adhered to. It was very interesting to actually see the place that I have only seen in pictures in books and on tv. As you took this tour, you could feel the intensity and the seriousness of this matter. We went inside the blue house that is always shown on tv, it is here where the countries come together to hold conversations. When we went in the blue house we actually could walk onto North Korea's side ((inside the house of course)). It was interesting because there is the actual country's border that run directly down the middle of that blue building. The building is set so that both countries have an equal amount of the house.The line is split directly down the middle of this large oak table, and both countries have thier sides, no one steps across. I found it very interesting because you can see just how different these two countries are. Luckily, no attacks happened while we were there, so we received our liability form, that we signed stating that if we died the tour guide was not responsible or liable in any way. He called it a souvenir, I called it a blessing.
