IT STARTED AND ENDED WITH KOREA

As promised here is a look back on my summer holiday... in the northern hemisphere... in winter, while I unwillingly miss out on yet another summer. By the time winter rolls around in NZ(which is very, very soon) , it would be my 7th winter in a roll... I officially need to get away to somewhere warm to hibernate during the bone chilling season.

Above is downtown Korea, quel domage I didn't get to do any shopping there ( shops were all closing by the time we finished dinner...)
Some dude promoting something, I don't understand Korean, its just my guestimation.

Dad wanted to have something simple, like noodles after our flight. Instead we somehow ordered a very complicated Korean hotpot accompanied by 2 pairs of scissors, big bowl of foreign seafood, giant basket of vegs, pot of kimchi, 2 different types of dipping sauce, some white stuff and one tiny bowl of noodles. Oh and some rice mixed with beaten egg, and seaweed lookin thing. uncooked. To be honest I didn't even know how to eat the damn thing and was very confused by the scissors cutlery.
