Itinerary Day Oct 1-3

So I decided to post my itinerary. I will post each day what I will be doing. When I get to Korea I will post how it went and my thoughts on it. This will help my friends know what we are doing and the history of the places. I have several friends who love history, and love to study up, so I think this is more for them then anyone.

Oct 1 will be stuffing and packing 3 weeks of clothes into a suitcase. Most people know I love clothes, but don't really dress up much. I wear pajamas to work everyday!! When I vacation I love to dye my hair different colors and wear stylish clothes. However, doing a lot of walking and moving from one hotel to another I don't want to pack a lot. And the only shoes I am bringing are my walking shoes and maybe one pair of dress. Winter clothes, I think I only own two long sleeve shirts. Okay enough about packing....seriously I could ramble on about what to wear. When did I become such a girl?

Oct 2 Is flying out of Houston to Dallas then onto Seoul!! Nice long flight 15 hours of being in a tin can hurtling threw the sky at ridiculous speeds!! When did I become such a scaredy cat?

Here is a map of Korea

We will be traveling from Incheon-Seoul, Andong, Gyeongju, Ulsan, Busan, Hapchun, Daegu, Seoul, and the DMZ. Mostly we will be in Seoul and it is our home base traveling to other cities. 

Oct 3 We land in Incheon-Seoul. We will meet a local driver who doesn't speak English but will have our name on a sign board. BTW the drivers name is Mr. Shrek. Can I say that I am just fascinated with that. Every place I have been in the world I have had friends, family or an assigned military person who I knew about, meeting me at the airport. Getting off an airplane and looking for your name is one of those quirky things I have always wanted to do. We will be staying  at the Kundaemunjip Guest House. We will have the rest of the day to just get settled in. I am sure Patricia and I will more than likely want to go run the streets and be crazy. Hmmm have I packed enough SD cards for my camera, duct tape, rope...oh wait ignore that last part...

As you can see the first 3 days of my vacation are just getting there. However I found out that if we want to I can take Korean culture classes at the AIRPORT!! How cool is that, I could pull a Tom Hanks in The Terminal type scenario. Incheon Airport has museums, gardens, crafts, culture, and festivals. 

The Hanok guest house is Kundaemunjip Guest House the photos are beautiful, I think I would love to paint  my room like room #103. We will be here for 3 days. If you click on the room/rate button then the rooms themselves. Also the outside view will show you lots of beautiful photos of the Hanok, a traditional Korean home.
