Pictures speaks better than words...

Jus some of the highlights in my Korea trip:

My first time to a very big spa centre near one of my hotels. Once I get into the changing room, I saw so many naked females walking around! Don't envy me, boys. Well I guess it's their culture there. They don't bother to get into changing rooms to change and wash. I heard that its the same in the male's room. What an eyeopener! Woohoo....! Anyway it was very fun in the spa centre cos many different spa areas, hot or cold, even got long tunnel slides in it! No picture to show for this, only brochure with me.

I must really show off one of the many hotels I get to stay in. It's quite a high tech hotel room. Guess whats available in the room? Here it goes: Wide screen LCD TV, LCD computer with internet, four-speakers stereo system, DVD player, UV ray sterilizer, air cleaner machine, toilet bowl with wash and dry facilities, shower room with sauna capabilities, drinks and snacks coin machine, hot and cold water dispenser!! Unbelievable rite! Below are some pics for me not telling lies!

The rectangular thing beside the PC screen is not the system unit but the air cleaner machine!

Yeah...after using, u can press buttons to wash your buttocks and dry them too!

In every restaurant that we eat in, always got one big water bottle provided on the table for us to refill our metal cups on our own. Also water dispenser for us to refill own water bottle too. Chopsticks are metal type, very thin and hard to use. We have steamboat or BBQ for every meal except breakfast plus few korean dishes, eat until scared! Different food base in every steamboat though like seafood, mushroom, tofu, dumpling, pork etc. See the typical meal we had below. Ppl who have been to Korea shld be familiar.

We mainly visted places of interest where the filming for Korean shows are taken place. Like Winter Sonata, Da chanjin etc... Below are Niami Island and a coffe house shooting places for Winter Sonata.
