Getting there ...

Korea is becoming a popular tour destination for many Taiwanese because the Korean TV drama has been so popular in Taiwan. Since the winter in Korea is much colder than Taiwan and even California, we had to pack all our heavy winter gears all the way from US before flied back to Taiwan first. We had a late aftenoon flight, and the flight from Taiwan to Korea took only about 2 hours. Unfortunately, due to jet-lag and air-sickness, Linus threw up in the airport after arrived in Korea. Neither Linus nor Iris could stay awake for the dinner this evening.


The Second Day ...











The Third/Fourth Day ...





The Fifth Day ...



We had Korean BBQ for dinner (we already had BBQ for 3 days in a row). I don't think I can eat another BBQ in a month.


Going Home ...

We had an early morning flight so that we had to leave the hotel (Grand Inter-Continental in Seoul) before 7AM. Although we have targeted this trip for kids and ski resort, I felt that we did not see either modern Korea or traditional Korean (I mean the real one, not just the theme park) well this time. We may come back to Korea again (if I learn how to read) and we may have a more in-depth visit, but I'll try not to come in winter next time :-)
