Over this summer I have learned to love blogging and just free write, something that I was not used to before. So, I will most likely move over to my tumbrl blog because it is pretty and easier to use. But, I am not sure when that will happen.
Well, I made it to Seoul, Korea this morning at 6:30am. I did not get any sleep at all from the Cambodia to Korea. It was hard to sleep because the people I was around were very loud and kept talking throughout the whole flight. Well, I guess I owe them a lot, it will be a lot easier for me to get past my "jet leg" when I get back to Minnesota. Well, besides the lack of sleep, the flight went by fast. I love flying Korea Air, it is just a nice airline, probably one of the best airlines in the whole world. Oh and speaking about Korean Air, yes, the Incheon International Airport in Seoul is the NICEST airport ever. Like seriously, I have not seen an airport that is so friendly and so much stuff to do and see. That's good because I had and am still waiting with a 12 hour layover here. Luckily, right now, I only have 2 more hours to wait until I depart to LA, but this is only a 12 hour journey. So not too bad. I love plane rides anyways. I think they are fun! Well, we landed and I was so sleep deprived because the previous night I was up til 5am. I might have taken a 1 hour nap by the pool with Rot. So, using the information and advice from Sam, I decided to checked into the transit hotel. Well, there were two of them in the transfer area that exited into and there was no way that I could go into Seoul because I probably would have passed out and got lost and confused. Something like that. Well, I got in and went to the information desk to figure out where to go and she tells me to head to Gate 6 because the transit hotel is in front of it. Lucky me, that is right in front of my departure gate. Awesome. Well, I head over and get on the escalator (which were super cool, they were motion sensor to save energy, get that, amazing). I get to the top and asked to check in, but guess what, they are all full and I was like, NOOOOOO!! But, she told me that the other transit hotel was not full and she made a phone call and told me to head over there. But, it was on the complete opposite side near gate 43. So, that was a long stretch to get to that side, but I needed to sleep at least a couple hours and a good shower. So, I headed over. The Korean airport is so interesting, they have a ton of lounges and access to free wifi all over the airport. They also had Korean cultural museum and events for foreigners to engage with. Today, it was painting fans, but every time I went, it was always full. On the walk there, there were duty free shops EVERYWHERE. Everyone had like carts of shopping bags. It was super crazy, I didn't know people went super crazy for duty free shopping. Well, I got to gate 43 finally and went up the escalator and finally checked in. The rate for the transit hotel is after 7:30am, it is $54 dollars for 6 hours and $9 dollars an hour afterwards, but if you arrived after a certain time, they locked you in for 12 hours, just the rules, but I got a 6 hour stay. The room was super nice for what I wanted. I was able to take a 3 hour nap and then a shower. I also took the chance to finally update my computer because the internet was FAST. I was shocked at how fast it was, can't wait to get to my apartment now and experience fast internet. Well, that went by pretty fast and I had to checked out 1pm. I decided it was time for lunch, after 20-30 minutes roaming around and trying to find where the food courts were, I finally found one near gate 26. There was BK, KFC and then a Italian place, Korean place and Japanese place. I decided to eat Korean food because I was in Korea and I was very happy. I got Bibambap, I hope that is right, but it was super good! But, I don't know what is truly good Bibambap, so can someone take me to a good Korean place? But, it was super yummy. Well, afterward I ended up roaming around just walking around mindlessly and I decided to go to the first transit hotel area because there was a place to sit and rest. So, I went over there and found a nice bench and two seconds later, I passed out. Yup, I was not expecting that at all. Well, luckily I woke up around 5pmish and I decided it was time for dinner because my flight did not leave at 6pm, like I thought, but 8pm and then it got delayed to 8:30pm. YAY! My favorite, not really, but it is okay because I am blogging. Well, I went to a place I saw earlier, I thought it said boba like bubble tea and I was like yes, please, That is what I want. Well, I went there and I did not see any bubble tea, but noodles and stuff. So I got some noodles, sat down and ate and then decided to come back up here and blog. Well, as I looked at the sign again, it did not say boba, but Bob and T. Oh, I am super delirious now. Let't hope I fall asleep for the night flight. It is leaving in an 1 hour and a half. YAY! United States, here I come.
