SEOUL •
day 6
arrived at incheon again after yet another flight by Korean air, immediately after reaching the airport, my sista n I go crazy over the 10x cheaper currency and the possibility of completing her nail polish collection from missha...its only 'ceban' here anyway so mom dont complain abt her completing it
at the airport, we meet our guide luci, luci is mentioned here cos she is a nice girl, before this our guide in japan was a SIngaporean...yeah not like I have anything against singaporean but u know..local is better rite...esp when it come to a guide, at least a local would have known that tickets for disneyland cant be used for disneysea and the time used to find that out could have been better utilised by taking another ride. darn
at the airport, lucy did the worst thing...she asks us to unpack and just bring a small luggage..for 2 days that we spent in mount sorak and the ski resort near it. It was outrageous ...because nobody wants to pack and unpack in the airport rite? not with 30 other people and the 'rich' Indons are the worst people you can ask to do something even it was for our own good.
to set the record straight: I am not rich yet..although someday I hope I am
anyway we then load our freaking big luggages...my family has the least u know...and we are a 5 member family...we only bring AQUA and enough clothes thats it...we dont change jackets nor handbags everyday. in fact the entire family only has 1 handbag...my mom's which she is lazy to carry and daddy and I or sista has to take turn. My camera is cute and nifty and fits inside my jacket pocket..together with my lipbalm and the 'change' for some little shopping
off we go to mount sorak and had traditional korean food complete with kimchi, nothing is ever eaten without kimchi
so we had dinner and then went to the hotel...ok more like apartment to sleep....we sleep on the floor again..and mommy woke up the next day with backache lol
anyway the room is big but then they provide tiny towels...and no soap..luckily mommy tar bao the souvenir shishedo soaps from japan hotels.
korean government is very very environmentally friendly, no plastic bag given for purchases is the norm there, so BYOB day is nothing to a Korean. they are used and prepare for it. Moreover, all the utensils such as spoon, fork ,bowls everyhting is made of metal thus if ur friend gave u metal chopstick as souvenir from korea dont be surprised because that is what they used everyday to save wastage.
and you cant buy big towels in korea, only hand face towel size is sold there, no free toothbrush toothpaste whatsoever, everything need to be paid and soap is once again not provided even in 5-star hotel.
mount sorak is beautiful ...updates with pic tom, at night its only chilly super duper cold, cant even walk ard in the hotel with normal clothes, lolLabels: december trip
