05th November 2011
( T . T )
We are going back tonight. As our flight
is after midnight on 06th November 2011, we are definitely not going
to waste time. So here we go dashing to do our last minute shopping in
Myeongdong.
Our 1st stop …… Gwanghwamun
Subway Station.

2nd stop …… Insadong
We went to Insadong again using the free
shuttle service provided by Ibis Hotel. Save the walking! We had our lunch in
Insadong.

This restaurant is in an alley after Ssamzigil. The broiled pork was so super yummy that Mum and me finished the whole plate by just the 2 of us and it actually serves 4 pax. *SLURP*

Broiled pork. This is delicious. |
|
Wow....... big feast. |
However, we are more curious with the queue outside this restaurant. Apparently, all these people are queuing for mandu (dumpling) and the fried dumpling looks delicious to me.

Exploring Insadong ............ again. As it is a Saturday. There are more stalls on the streets selling all kinds of food and stuff. In conclusion, one must plan at least 1 weekend in Seoul to see all this special events.
Incheon International Airport
We finally have some time to see Incheon International Airport after the rushing arrival 7 days ago. However, how should I put it, the airport is a dead town after 2130hrs (9.30pm). All shopping galleries in the departure hall are closed even the information counter. We wanted to ask if there is any place where we can have our dinner.
In the end, with the help of the Information Map, we managed to locate a 24 hours operating kiosk that sells sandwiches and drinks. I bet my mum is sad that she needs to eat sandwiches for dinner.
|
Shops are closed and barely anyone. |

*Additional information:
For those whose flight are late like us, there is a FREE shower facility which includes FREE face towel and shampoo near The Hub Lounge (located : Airside - Level 4, Transfer Service Complex) inside the departure hall. Prepare your own amenities if possible.
The free shower facility is a bonus to me because I can shower before boarding the plane. I feel so refresh after that but once again, it closed at 2200hrs. They do not accept anymore guest after 2145hrs.
Ok, times up. Our flight is taking off. Goodbye Seoul and Hello Singapore!!!!
