Yeah. They're changing out the mainline. And I know what you're thinking - inconvenient, but not a deal breaker, right? Just take a three day weekend in Seoul or Busan.
The hotels will be rammed. It's Memorial Day weekend.
So now I'm flushing my toilet with greywater that I also need to spongebathe in.
Anyone got some hints or tips for how to go an entire holiday weekend without water? |

About 12 big bottles of water would do me fine for drinking, brushing my teeth and washing my face.
Drink beer if you need more bath time, dirty foreigner! |

That's affirmative, but a guy's gotta take a dump at least once a day, know what I mean? The old bathtub trick comes from my dad who lives in the sticks back home. No electricity = no water, so every time there's a storm brewing, he fills up the bathtub. It's saved his ass more than a few times. |

.... You can flush a toilet with a bucket of water, I'm just saying, I've never been through a planned outage like this, and I want to know if there are any quirks to it. |

Do it Borat style: Crap in a bag. Then bring it to the local water department. |

I have found that the cities usually empty when there is a national holiday, so it should be easier to get a hotel in one of the bigger cities....Koreans leave seoul and go back to the countryside to be with their family, i went to seoul for seolnal(spelling??) and the place was empty...it was great!!! |
