Incheon Int’l Airport (ICN), South Korea
We currently are on a 4 hour layover here in S. Korea. What a gorgeous airport! Lots of glass, lots of sunlight and bathrooms with automatic toilet seat covers (I was going to take a photo but a stream of people came in). The stores here sell kimchee and kochuujan (I’m misspelling that). We stopped for a bite to eat, and there was a dizzying array of food options, all of which I wanted to try.
Look who I ran into! Bae Yong Jun from Fuyu no Sonata!
Just kidding, it was a cut out posterboard of him…
I have to comment about my flight - although I was in the very middle of the 5 seats in the middle section (this 777 was a 2,5,2 configuration), I sitll had a decent flight (other than the spastic colombian man next to me who kept jabbing me with his elbow). The plane seemed pretty new, or at least was quite clean (keep in mind I’ve been flying Delta and Aerolineas Argentinas for the last few weeks). The service was fantastic (what is it about Asian airlines that know how to work the customer service) and the food.. we got bibimbop for dinner… with real silverware in real ceramic bowls. That sure beats the plastic crap and crackers we got with Delta. The plane was relatively quiet too - you could hear the clank-ing of the utensils to the bowls as everyone stirred their veggies, rice and kochuujan together

Shiz - I liked that one picture with you and Bae Yong Jun!! Though, it’s a cardboard of him - looks so real. I really thought you had ran into him and since he’s a celebrity thought you and T had bought him a bouquet of flowers. lol hahahaha I also laughed so hard with the couple who were wearing the same shirts. Sort of reminded me of you and I with our matching pajama’s. lol Anyways, enjoy yourself and have a safe one.

Well it was like Sundabul but more veggies, and yeah the spices were great! I would love to have a longer layover on the way home to see if we could possibly do one of those tours where they take you from the airport to the outside.
Jin!!! Yes, more people assume I’m Korean than Japanese… also I have to say that Korean Airlines has some pretty good looking people working on their flights!!
