Journalists Make 18+ Hour Journey To N. Korean Nuclear Site

A small coterie of foreign reporters is about to set off on a marathon journey to a remote location in North Korea to witness Pyongyang's purported destruction of the Punggye-ri nuclear test site. The journey is more than 18 hours by plane, train, bus and foot. The journalistsare leaving from Wonsan, a port city on North Korea's east coast, where they landed Tuesday after catching a specially-chartered plane from Beijing. That flight was just the first leg in the long journey to Punggye-ri, more than 200 miles north of Pyongyang. To get there requires an 11-hour journey train, four hours by bus, followed by up to an hour of hiking to the mountain location from where the journalists have been told they'll see the nuclear site's destruction.
