bummer
The timing of your post is just too perfect. Mrs Sweet Willie is now fully aware of the ICN trip as well. Last night over dinner. As suspected she is totally fine with it, especially as we were planning for a long weekend on Cape Cod this fall.
EXCELLENT

DMZ tour info
My Mrs is the best^
To all who are planning on attending the DMZ tour and for all those who think they might want to attend.
I just confirmed my reservation for the DMZ tour using my CC via email to them. I had originally thought that once I paid the $44 that is was non-refundable. The reply I got today from the DMZ folks stated the opposite, that I only need give them 2 business days notice to cancel to get a full refund.
So if you are holding off in the event you might not go, you might consider booking the tour just in case seeing as you can cancel w/o penalty.

I'm hoping that THIS event has no impact on either the DO itself or more likely on the DMZ tour. 
Keeping fingers crossed that it's just a tempest in a teapot.

In that sense, I was concerned that heightened tensions would just give us "something else" to do on Saturday.
Best, Dave
