I had to consume a SOAP Service to book train tickets, while retrieving data was relatively easy, posting data was weird. It took a while until I understood the whole concept (I didn't write those xml messages myself, but used the php soap client) , and the data structure was very complex, it was hard to focus. At the end it helped me to understand and appreciate REST much more :). And no SOAP anymore, only for washing my hands. :)
