3 Museums in One Morning!

And then a series of mad dash back to Singapore!

The National Palace Museum of Korea...

Which houses various artifacts, mostly from the last dynasty of Korea... Including this car! One of the first to be built in Korea...

And then off to the Bank of Korea Museum! To look at money... There was a line outside the museum... Which was pretty weird... But we joined the line... And eventually found out that the line was formed to purchase a 2-piece uncutted 1,000won note collectors edition... So we bought a set... =x

Money!

Can I have just 1 stack please? Please? Please?

The poster said so... Biggest department store in the World... Luckily, neither my mum or I are shopaholic...

The Korea War memorial... Which also serves as the Army Museum of South Korea...

Service uniform of the ROK... As previously mentioned... All able-bodied South Korean males must serve 2 years of military service... And the story I heard from the tour guide is terrible... =x

Colours of the ROK...

Mum posing...

Drum with a tiger design on it... Did I mentioned I'm born in the year of the tiger?

I believe this is the Korean-made K-1 tank...

The B-52 bomber... Still in service with the USAF... Crazily huge... All found in the Korean War Memorial...

Kim's Guesthouse... Located in Hapjeong... I stayed here the first time I came to Korea... Have been renovated... And it's really beautiful now... Still under renovation here and there... But it will be great!

Lounge area...

Computers with internet access... It's very important for the modern backpacker... =x

THe kitchen!

AREX to the airport...

Lunch at airport...

Check this out! Abalone with shell!

Incheon international airport... Currently voted the best airport in the World!

Airplane food... =D

Dessert at Beijing airport... It's so pretty... It deserves to have it's photo taken! For one the biggest and most important airport in the World... Beijing airport's transit terminal shops close mighty early! At 8.30pm, most of the shops are closed... Leaving only the duty-free shops! Weird!

Flight back home...

In the end... Can only say I enjoyed myself thoroughtly... The first time I came to Korea, the only thing on my mind was to survive! Cycling through Korea was a crazy idea... But if I can go back in time, I would still do it! But this time, the idea was to have fun! Fun! And fun! And I had fun... It was worthwhile... =D
