I enjoyed myself too much to take out my camera.
As promised, pictures from Korea.
I'm pretty much positive my family is insane.♥
There's thirty pics, so watch out now!
My hotel room
Left: Welcome to Room 305. Take off your shoes, please.
Right: Take a look at the sexy shower. It has six heads to the body, a handheld and a regular shower head.
Left: Free internet, TV, DVD/VCR combo, hot and cold water dispenser and a fridge. All Samsung.
Right: My sisters lounging about.
Day 1: Massive Tour Day
Left: Sitting on the tour bus, waiting to start.
Right: My dad, asleep, waiting for the tour to start. Funny thing is that there was a camera crew filming and interviewing people on the bus. Apparently, I'm not foreign looking enough, seeing as they interviewed only Caucasians. Also, the camera man kept filming tight shots of my dad. While he was asleep. Yeah, I guess he'll be on the website's commercial in a couple of months.
...from the Traditional Korean Village...
Left: Paris has Le Tour Eiffel, London has "Big Ben", Tokyo has Tokyo Tower, and Seoul has this: Seoul Tower. Covered in fog and rainclouds.
Right: My sister on some sort of stage... Is she flipping me off?
Left: In front of the gates of the village.
Right: Peekaboo.
Left: It's a treadmill. At the single end is a hole where grain was put in. Someone would stand on the other side and rock around, grinding the grains.
Right: Inside the traditional house. See the gaps between the steps and the house floor? They would stuff burning wood there to heat the house.
Left: In the traditional house, still.
...from Gyeongbokgoong / Korean Folk Museum...
Left: I saw this man painting one of the pictures.
Left: I have this strange need to play that one game that looks like golf but not. I just had a K-drama Goong moment.
Right: I did this pose for you, Harry. Man, that random guy to the right is ruining my shot. And FYI, I've never seen Haruhi Suzumiya.
Left: This is a place to entertain foreign diplomats or important guests. And have tea with Gran-Gran.
Right: That's the Folk Museum back there. And that's my dad and my sister... being themselves.
Left: In front of the museums, there's a circle of the zodiac statues. So...
Right: Enter the Snake.
Left: The Ram.
Right: And the Boar (since I was born in January and Chinese New Year is in February, I'm a Boar and not a Rat!)
Left: And two Dragons, like my brother-in-law. Haha.
Left: Every morning, we would eat breakfast at the cafe in the hotel, Cafe Mu. Swanky, right? Low lighting, couches, and Christmas carols.
Day 2: Let the shopping begin...
Left: This is the station we left every morning. I still don't understand their alphabet!!
Right: I call this "The Tourist". Haha.
Left: Nandaemun, streets full of cheap clothes and random stuff.
Right: Myeongdong, a single long row of shopping, slightly higher class, still just as cheap.
Left: Be careful because the doors may snatch your bag... like this cute boy illustrates.
Day 3: Time to leave...
Left: At the airport, on our way home. Wow, they look too much alike.
