Still trying to get to Bangkok and the journey has been interesting. The time thing is very difficult for me. Here it is 8:00 am Monday morning but according to my computer it is 4 PM Sunday afternoon - a 16 hour difference with the loss of one day. The 12 1/2 hour trip from Los Angeles to Seoul adds to the disorientation. Plenty of time to regroup with a 10 hour layover here in Korea. This is one of the newest and most beautiful airports in the world but I still feel trapped in designer store heaven. I thought about going out and actually seeing some of Seoul. I've been through this airport 5 times and I've never left it to see this country. It may not be the best time to try this. There is some huge quarentine process that anyone officially entering the counry has to go through. On top of that, it's 20 degrees F outside and I'm dressed for hot and humid Bangkok.
I guess the most important thing for me is to see if this blog entry actually goes through. It took almost 2 hours just to get to AOL from here. I've actually downloaded an entire Korean interpreter program just to get this entry out. Fingers crossed and hopefully the next check in will be in Bangkok Thailand, (where my new Korean interpreter program will be of absolutely no help). Cheers from Finally Ramblin!
