::12:30 midnight now... Quite a while since i last blogged... Korea was great! Needed that holiday... Lets see, first day was travelling 400+mph at 35000 feet for 6 hours... Incheon International Airport was very cool.. Huge, spacious, modern... Alot of the building was made out of glass, got this sleek look... Changni looks kinda old when compared to some of the airports I've been.. Well, asked my dad for some money to buy somethings from the store.. 20,000 won.. about S$30.. Everything was in Korean, no idea what is what.. Just look at the product and buy... Anyway, it was a 3 hour bus ride to some Herb Land place... Smelt some herbs, the actual plants in the pots... Some quite nice, there's one purple flower one that smells like chocolate.. Also tried some herbs, literally fresh.. Straight from the plant.. The leaves kinda sweet, after chewing for a while I spat it out, find it hard to swallow.. Then tour the place, the plants there very nice... Got some hi-res pics, ask from me... See for your self.. If you want all 300+ pics I took also can, just ask me...
Another 3 hour ride to Kangwon Land.. Some casino theme park... They had live musicians playing there... A clarinettist was playing, he's damn good... Lyrical and harmonic... Wished I can play that expressively...
Next day went to the theme park there... Simulator rides kinda boring to me... I would rather go for the real thing.. Then went to some spring and a cave...
3rd went to back to Seoul... Shopped.. Then went to Lotte World in the late afternoon.. This is what I've been waiting for... Didn't have much time.. Sat the monorail, the boat ride, the viking ship and a looping rollercoaster.. The French Revolution, that was what the coaster was called.. Was indoors... When going down was quite dark... then burst out into the light, into a loop... Damn fun.. The sensation... Wished could ride it again, but had no time.. Then watched a parade, bright lights, loud music..
Day 4... Stayed in the Sheraton Grande Walkerhill-Seoul... 5-star hotel! Kinda a steal, the tour only cost $800 and we get to stay at a Sheraton hotel? Went to a musuem, history of korea blah blah blah.... Also visited the Korean Gingseng Center... My mom bought some gingseng home... Not much pictures for that day.. Coz the places DO NOT allow photographs.. hiaz.. At night watch the Tokebi Storm show.. Very Nice! Sorta like Cooking or Tap Dogs, more on percussion instruments... The story was very amusing.. The actors superb... Even though there was no dialogues, the story was very clear.. Shan't dwell too much on it.. If you're going to Korea, you gotta watch this show...
Last Day- went to Nandaemun or Nan Da Men... shopping district... bought some seaweed.. too bad now all finished.... Also... pizza there is very cheap... Unlike Singapore, there only cost $15 for a large pizza...Well our flight was at 5, so had to reach the airport by 3... Checked in took about 30mins.. Clearance took another hour.. Had to take off our shoes to be x-rayed! Security was tight eh? Had this large shock, literally, went i pushed the trolley... It seems the terminal was so far that static electricity had built up while the wheels rolled on the carpet.. Then I unawarely touch the metal... Zap! Could feel the electricity running though my body... Anyway, boarded the plane and said goodbye to Korea... Maybe I'll visit another time...
